So much so that some Jews speculated that there must be two messiahs to fulfill all the prophecies: messiab ben David, the triumphant messiah; and messiah ben Joseph, the suffering messiah. As it turns out, it's not two messiahs, with one advent each. It's one messiah, with two advents. Remember, the Bible doesn't end with the gospels. The unfulfilled prophecies will be fulfilled in the end, as described in the OT and in Revelation.
Why do they say the messiah was supposed to be descended from David? (Mt 22:42, Mk 12:35, Lk 20:41)
