I know that the requirements God gave.... Christ fulfilled exactly to the T. I also know the Jews at that time expected a conquering King who would subdue their enemies, which he will indeed show Himself to be at the appointed time...but because He didn’t fit their bill then, many rejected Him. But many also accepted Him as the Messiah and for that His message of Salvation came to us Gentiles as well. Which shows Gods great and loving Mercy for us who are not Jewish. He includes Gentiles now in all the great and prescious promises to Israel...and for that we Gentiles are very much humbled and grateful.

The Torah is very specific on the basic requirements...the most basic is that the Jewish Messiah is a man...not a demi-god, or any version G-d becoming man (”God is not a mortal” (Numbers 23:19)). If you recall, G-d gave us Gentiles our instructions in the time of Noah, so we have long been covered by his love...best to you...magritte
