>>grace of God was dispensed to Abraham<<

Anyone who can't see the difference before and after Christ's death and resurrection is to be pitied.

Strawman argument.

Everything about Yeshua was prophesied by Moses, including grace for those that repent.

Galatians 4: …3So also we, while we were children, were held in bondage under the elemental things of the world. 4But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the Law, 5so that He might redeem those who were under the Law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.…

Redemption did not happen until Jesus. Abraham's faith was counted as righteousness, but it was a faith that looked forward to the redemption provided by Jesus. (Rom 4, Galations 3)
