John 8:42-47,...the Messiah spells it out in plain language who they are that choose not to follow him.
It wasn't a choice. Jesus does not meet the description of the promised messiah.
Yes he did. The Jews, however, developed their own parallel criteria pretending to be authoritative interpretations of Scripture, and then claimed he didn't fulfill those. Those, however, were not revelation, but rather the traditions of men which the Jewish scholars sought to substitute for revelation. Today, these traditions go under the name of Talmud.
The Talmud is POST 70AD. In about 200 AD, the Jews codified their oral traditions in the Mishna. Then, over the next 2 centuries, they added thousands of rules that they called the Talmud. It was an attempt to tell people what God really meant in all of his laws and they got way out of God's intent on many of them.
