It's an on-point critique of an accurate reading of scripture. When the point has been made before, you've claimed that god was just doing the best he could with the people of the day, and that he limits of their understanding imposed a necessary coarseness on any divine moral code, and that only blatantly ignoring those facts could result in any critique of a moral code that was, of course, inherently and divinely compassionate and just.
The trouble is your argument is a special pleading based on stuff you made up.
Babies in the preschool can work out the importance of sharing and that no child should be a slave to another; the idea that this could be too difficult to explain to bronze age peasants is....a conclusion left to the reader.
No, my reading is based on what the Bible says about itself.
And it's simple logic that encoding a regulation of something into law does not mean approval of the practice -- it may well be done to keep things from being worse.
