To the Jew: Did Yeshua come at the expected time, and are we living in the Messianic era?

We've spent a lot of time looking at Christian objections to Judaism, but now I want to spend sometime "Answering Jewish Objections to Jesus." (Sorry Michael L. Brown for the pun on words). Some of this material can be found in Dr. Brown's book "Answering Jewish Objections to Jesus" volume 1 being that he answered this very objection within his book. Most of this will be my wording however. I want to look into the matter of whether Yeshua came at the time he was supposed to come. First of all, what does the Tanakh say? We're going to look at this first, and then, I want to look at some Talmudic tradition so that Gentiles might be able to answer what the Jews have to say on the matter, and Jews may begin to get a better grasp on where we are at. First of all, how can we know from the Tanakh that Yeshua is the Messiah?
