I have read it and it doesn't serve to answer the explicit question, "Where did God reveal something as important as SA or ECT between when he created mankind and when he sent his only begotten son to the world though? It just isn’t in the OT." In fact it explicitly states that in the OT, the afterlife (Sheol) was "characterized by inactivity and silence."
Additionally, the provided link authoritatively claims, "Nowhere does the Old Testament
describe them [repa’im(“shades”)] as engaging in any activity or having any contact with the living." However, I've already referenced 1 Samuel chapter 28 where Samuel's shade talks to King Saul.
Oh well, I've already put a lot more effort responding to your link than you did in sharing it, but perhaps you could say something to explain what I'm missing in why you shared it.

I'm unsure why you shared this link.
