It's hard to believe that Jesus was the Messiah because they thought of Jesus as somebody who wasn't human, and would smite down the Romans and free the Jews. They thought of him as this divine being that would ascend from heaven, something a lot different than jesus. Jesus was not at all what they expected. Jesus was poor, and he helped out those in need, and didn't like the rich people at all. So they weren't in favor of this man coming in and helping with everything, when they expected the messiah to be something "bigger".
