One branching off from another seems like one of them is the wrong path.

It isn't like that. The end of the Old Testament is God being mad at Isreal and he punishes them.
But then he says one day he will have a change of heart and the messiah is gonna bring salvation to Israel.
Christianity claims that was Jesus.

Judaism is still waiting for that person.

Basically the old testament ends on a cliffhanger.

However, I will point out this curious verse:

Isaiah 11
10 And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious.

Gentiles seeking after the messiah is a weird prophecy in that back then the Jews didn't like the gentiles and the gentiles didn't like the Jews.
Yet some Jewish guy prophecied that the gentiles would seek out this Jewish messiah guy.
Yet another coincidence that Jesus is really really really big among the gentiles?
