If you have questions about Judaism, it makes more sense to ask them than to rely on false premises and a lack of knowledge to make pronouncements.

Unless you are starting with an agenda and preconceived notions and have no real interest in hearing any other opinion besides your own.

I have an agenda and preconceiced notions.

I also want to comprehend a nonTalmudic reason from Tanakh alone that proves Christ messiah was somehow not Yeshua.

The Jews were worse off after Jesus.Not what was expected of their Messiah.

Jews generally do not believe that Jesus fulfilled the messianic prophecies outlined in Jewish scripture. While the New Testament cites Jewish scriptures to support the claim that Jesus was the Messiah, Jews interpret these passages differently and do not consider them fulfilled by Jesus. Many Jewish scholars and theologians view these prophecies as not being fulfilled by Jesus.

well, here are four prophecies (with sources) that are the sine qua non of the future king messiah:

-He must build the ThirdTemple (Ezekiel 37:26-28)
-He must gather all the Jews back to the Land of Israel (Is. 43:5-6)
- He must usher in an era of world peace and bring an end to hatred,oppression, suffering and disease (Is. 2:4)
- He must spread the knowledge of the G-d of Israel, uniting the entire worldas one (Zechariah 14:9)


Jesus didn't fulfill these. Therefore, based on textual verses, he could not have been the promised future king messiah.

The Jews killed him before he could finish his mission. They demanded the Romans crucify him for blasphemy.

you mean that according to the gospels, Jews made a demand of their oppressors, and that demand was for a secular ruler to use a non-sanctioned form of capital punishment to kill someone who hadn't commited the crime of blasphemy uner Jewish law.

IOW, nothing that would make any sense in terms of Judaism.
