Another expectation was for a great religious leader. The Jews of Palestine had the opportunity to observe Jesus and any miracles he may have performed. It is clear from their failure to follow him that they were not impressed and, even if they thought of him as a potential Messiah, he did not live up to their expectations. After another 2000 years, many Jews are still waiting.

In what sense did Jesus fulfill the role of Jewish messiah?
He didn't. The primary role of the messiah for Jews is to serve as King, to usher in the messianic era of peace. There is still war, and there isn't a messianic kingdom, so Jesus didn't fulfill the role of Jewish messiah.
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.

Who is the waiting messiah and Can messiah be a woman?
The idea of 'maschiach' (which means 'anointed') originated in Judaism. The Jewish Maschiach will be a normal, human man; he must fulfill the 23 Jewish messianic prophecies before he dies. Christianity took the concept, changed it, and declared that Jesus was the 'messiah'. As he does not fulfill any of the Jewish criteria for 'maschiach', though, he is not the Jewish messiah. The Jewish messiah is likely to be a man, but there are some Jews who argue that it could be a woman. There is a belief that in every generation, a potential messiah is born. But Jews do not actively 'wait' for their messiah. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
