Why were the Jes looking for a messiah Did Jesus fulfill most Jews expectations for a messiah?

The Jews of Jesus' time were seeking a messiah primarily due to their longing for a savior who would liberate them from Roman oppression and restore Israel's sovereignty, aligning with prophetic expectations from their scriptures. Many anticipated a political leader or warrior king who would establish an earthly kingdom. However, Jesus did not fulfill these expectations, as his teachings emphasized spiritual salvation and a kingdom of God that transcended political boundaries. Consequently, while some Jews recognized him as the messiah, many rejected him for not meeting their traditional expectations.
