If the OT taught God is three in one then all the personal pronuns used with "elohiym" in all Scriptures would be "we", "our", and "us". The fact is the pronouns in all Scriptures except Genesis 1:26, 3:22, 11:7, and Isaiah 6:8 where God (elohiym) is speaking are first person. Now unless you believe God is playing word games your understanding of the plurality of God is incorrect. When Moses asked God His name the response was I AM WHO I AM, not WE ARE WHO WE ARE. "I" is not plural.
When God spoke to Moses and said "I AM THAT I AM", who is speaking in this verse? If God is indeed a plurality, all 3 persons or "subsistences" would have to be speaking in order for God to say "WE ARE WHO WE ARE". God the Father is speaking in this passage and refers to Himself as "I".

If your answer is no, then I suggest you rethink Jesus is God since none of the Messianic prophecies tell us God is going to die on a cross.
AS man, Christ is one who is Greater than Moses. He is not like Moses in His Divine Nature, but in His Human Nature.
