The Pharisees and Sadducees thought they understood the prophecies of the first coming. When the Messiah came they didn't even recognize him. He didn't fit their preconceived notions derived from their understanding of prophecy. I fully expect his second coming to go much the same way
Some people recognized Him for who He was, but the religious ‘experts’...those who’d studied their religion for many years, those who were well versed in the ‘orthodoxy’...didn’t even recognize their own Messiah.
