as most of the passages are God speaking to the jews, yes, it is a product of culture.
Ah. So you are confused.
I will say this - you're the first theist I am aware of that claimed that god's opinion on law was swayed by cultural concerns.
Edited to add: If this is the case, then no theist can claim that god's law is objective or absolute. And since it's an observed fact that a great many of them do in fact do so, it's pretty foolish to claim that cultural influences had anything to do with it.
Unless, of course, the law was devised by men and the little chit chat Moses had with god was fiction.
