How WOULD YOU think they would have recognized him...before the paradigm shift? You have an imagination and a claim of intelligence, give us your speculation as to how YOU would have recognized him.

He would be born in Bethlehem, a descendent of the royal family of David, but not through Solomon. After that, it would just be: can he gather the following and the funds, can he unite the people and mount a rebellion. That's what they were looking for. And that's the role he stepped forward to fulfill. His disciples understood him perfectly well. They were there. It's you who has made up this whole alternate legend behind his failed attempt to free his country.

Who is this “you” to whom you are referring? As for the lineage...it would have come thru Nathan, David's crippled son.

As for a military messiah, it is true that Jesus will come in a military way, just that the timing was off. Christ first came to seek and save that which was lost and to gather a people for His name; but when he comes again he'll have come in great power and glory after much devastation has been wreaked upon the Earth. Israel will be established as the preeminent nation upon the Earth and the healing of all the remaining nations will begin, during the millennial reign. The world will see a venging Messiah as he puts Satan in chains! All praise to he who has inscribed on his right thigh...."Faithful and True"!
