In a nutshell, might makes right. Yahweh sets the rules for us and can do as he pleases. Your morality comes from a celestial dictator. This is the Christian idea of "objective morality".
I admire this kind of honesty. So many of the more thoughtful but less honest apologists will tie themselves into knots babbling nonsense about how "moral laws are grounded in the very nature of God yatta yatta"
