Can someone remind me, did the Jews expect the Messiah…

Can someone remind me, did the Jews expect the Messiah to be the Son of God, or was the Messiah just supposed to be another Moses-like figure in their minds? I am reading through John and came across the account of Jesus talking to the Samaritan woman by the well and it got me wondering, “What exactly were they expecting from the Messiah? Just a political leader and warrior, perhaps? Someone to dethrone Rome and lift up Israel? Did they expect him to be fully human?” Would love your thoughts ?
