You quoted one site quoting one bare assertion from a wikipedia article. That's hardly support for the claim that jews never thought that the messiah was to be divine.

that is what split christianity with judaism the assertion that jesus was God ... that is what landed jesus on the cross is the misunderstanding by the jews that jesus was claiming to be God thats what the jews took issue with . if they were expecting God incarnate dont you think they wouldve been welcoming to the concept instead of angry ?

As I mentioned.  It's not hard to claim to be God.  The psych wards across this country are filled with people claiming to be God.  Meaningfully sustaining the claim is what is problematic.

how did he sustain the claim of being divine ? he was killed and had rocks thrown at him
