  Mashiach ben Yosef
Mashiach ben Yosef is said to be of the tribe of Ephraim (son of Joseph), and is also sometimes called Mashiach ben Ephraim (Bavl'i Sukah 52b).
Mashiach ben Yosef will come first, before the advent of Mashiach ben David, to prepare the world for the coming of the kingdom of the LORD.
However, Mashiach ben Yosef will be killed during the war against evil, as described in the prophecy of Zechariah, who says of this tragedy that “they shall mourn him as one mourns for an only child.” (Zech 12:10, Bavl'i Suk.

 Yedid Nefesh - Kol Hator
Mashiach ben Yosef himself is a composite of two aspects: on the one hand, he is Yosef the son of Rachel of the land; on the other hand, he is Yosef son of Jacob from Heaven.
The general mission of Mashiach ben Yosef is three-fold: revelation of the mysteries in the Torah, ingathering of the exiles, and removal of the unclean spirit from the land.
All these are the assignment of Mashiach ben Yosef and of the light of Mashiach ben Yosef in the final generation, that is, of the light of the Gaon whose light increases until the day is established.

 Hebrew Name for God - The Messiah (Mashiach)
The word “Messiah” (mashiach) comes from the verb mashach, which means to smear or anoint with oil, usually for the purpose of dedicating or consecrating something (such as a temple vessel) or someone (such as a prophet, priest or king) for the service of Adonai.
Mashiach ben Yosef is considered to be a forerunner and harbinger of the final deliverer, Mashiach ben David.
Mashiach ben Yosef suffers for the sins of Israel (Isaiah 53).

 Messiah
Thus, the prophets foretold that Mashiach must be a kind of being that was unknown on the earth, both a son of David and G-d Himself.
In the first mission Mashiach would have to be most notably a perfect man, since He would have to die as the sinless (spotless) sacrifice in substitution for the sins of the world (Isaiah 53).
In the second mission Mashiach would have to be most notably G-d Himself, since he would have to put all enemies of rigtheousness under His authority.

Mashiach:  The Messiah / Torah 101 / Mechon Mamre
I believe with perfect faith in the coming of the mashiach, and though he may tarry, still I await him every day.
In the messianic age, the whole world will recognize YHWH, the LORD God of Israel, as the only true God, and the Torah will be seen as the only true religion (Isaiah 2,3; 11,10; Micah 4,2-3; Zechariah 14,9).  There will be no more murder, robbery, competition, or jealousy.

 The Laws Concerning Mashiach
There is also a reference [to Mashiach] in the passage concerning Bilaam, who prophesies about the two anointed [kings]: the first anointed [king] [2], David, who saved Israel from her oppressors, and the final anointed [king] who will arise from among his descendants and save Israel [at the End of Days] [3].
There is no need to cite prooftexts on the concept [of the Mashiach] from the words of the prophets, for all [their] books are filled with it.
During the Era of the King Mashiach, once his kingdom has been established and all of Israel has gathered around him, the entire [nation's] line of descent will be established on the basis of his words, through the prophetic spirit which will rest upon him.

 Achieving Messianic Reality
A person who is well versed in how the Kingdom of Israel should function, who the Mashiach is and what actions he is likely to take to rectify reality, is capable of identifying the "windows of opportunity" and the processes that actually lead to the redemption.
This obstacle is removed when we become "personally acquainted" with the Mashiach and the redemption, and realize that it is possible and imperative that Mashiach comes in our generation, and that we "deserve" Mashiach.
The main innovation of Mashiach is the "Torah of Mashiach." Study of this new dimension of the Torah is the most inner aspect of life in the Messianic reality.

 Do We Want Mashiach Now?
The commentators are in unanimous agreement with Maimonedes regarding the meaning of this prophecy; they all interpret this passage as a reference to the Mashiach.
But the fact that his coming was the subject of a prophesy doesn't automatically elevate the belief in the coming of Mashiach into a basic axiom of Jewish faith.
Judaism teaches that the arrival of Mashiach is accompanied by birth pangs, Chevlei Mashiach.

 Of Mashiach and Lieberman
Hashem is certainly preparing the world for the Mashiach (Messiah)." Of course, only time will tell if that proves to be true, but we can use that hopeful thought as a catalyst for self-improvement during the high holiday season, a time of the year which is meant for bettering ourselves.
He said that he will be learning Torah in his study one morning, when he will notice that the sunlight entering his room is unusually bright.
But is abundantly clear that we are living in the era right before his coming, and it would be neat to have a Jewish VP when Mashiach does come.

 Do you want Mashiach Now? / רוצה אתה משיח ...
So it should be obvious to any diligent student of the Bible (believer) that prior to the coming of Mashiach there will be war and much tribulation.
Add to that fact that for the redeemed that die, death is a beginning and not an end and then of course there is the resurrection.
If then you really want Mashiach now, then according to the Word of G-d you need to be prepared for war, killing, pain, loss, trials, persecution and tribulation because you will not get the former without the latter.

 Targum Press - Horizons: Tucking in the Mashiach   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
I told him that we are taught that Mashiach is actually born on the afternoon of Tishah B'Av.
I thought perhaps the idea of Mashiach being born on Tishah B'Av was too foreign for him to comprehend or that maybe I had somehow frightened him.
In a day and age when we often find it hard to believe that Mashiach can come during our lifetime, we need a child who truly believes that he himself can actually be Mashiach.

 Visit to the Hidden Mashiach
In every generation, the Arizal explained, a Mashiach descended from David and a Mashiach descended from Joseph is born.
Once at the house of the acclaimed Mashiach ben David of the generation, to their surprise they found only one small room, two broken down beds, and one table ready to fall apart and a chair.
Reb Eliyakim himself lay in bed, and his wife was at the stove which stood in the middle of the house.

 Biblical Dates for Mashiach's (Messiah's) Conception and Birth
Using the evidence of Scripture, it is a simple task to calculate the actual birth date of Mashiach to within a very few days; the exact date is then easily extrapolated.
Therefore, in anticipation of the coming of Mashiach, when Pesach (Passover) is celebrated, a place at the table is set and a cup of wine is poured for Eliyah (Elijah), and the door of the house is left open so that he may come in to the celebration.
It is clear that for centuries before the birth of Messiah the Jews had been anticipating the return of Eliyah during Pesach.

 Jewish Messiah - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Judaism and Jewish eschatology, the Messiah (Hebrew: משיח; Mashiah, Mashiach, or Moshiach, "anointed [one]") has traditionally referred to a future Jewish king from the Davidic line who will be "anointed" (the meaning of the Hebrew word משיח) with holy anointing oil and inducted to rule the Jewish people during the Messianic Age.
Number 12 is the main principle relating to Mashiach.

 The true identity of MASHIACH
You're not going to believe this story, but when it was told to me a few years ago, that's when I knew truly who mashiach really was, and who are his true followers.
I realized that Baruch Spinoza was talking in a secret code that only I understood, and that Spinoza was saying that he was mashiach, and that he would be coming down to earth soon in the Merkavah to settle old scores, and bring all Jews together in harmony and teshuva.
And that when mashiach comes, there will be Orthodox, Reform, and Conservative services side-by-side at the Kotel.

 Ikvot Meshicha: The Time Immediately Before Mashiach - Moshiach in Jewish Law
These are the birthpangs of Mashiach, bearable only in anticipation of the bliss that follows them.
Little wonder that some sages expressed apprehensions about those days in terms of, “Let [Mashiach] come, but let me not see him.”7 The prevailing attitude, however, is to await his coming in spite of all, even if thereafter we shall merit no more than sitting “in the shadow of his donkey’s dung!”8

 Messiah - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The word Christ (Greek Χριστός, Christos, "the anointed one") is a literal translation of "mashiach" used in the Greek Septuagint version of the Bible, and derived from the Greek verb χριω "rub, anoint with scented unguents or oil, as was done after bathing", "anoint in token of consecration" (Liddell and Scott's Greek-English Lexicon).
The prophecies regarding this person refer to him as a descendant of King David who will rebuild the nation of Israel, bring world peace by restoring the Davidic Kingdom, destroy the wicked, and ultimately judge the whole world.
The mainstream Jewish understanding of mashiach (the messiah) has little, if anything, in common with the Christian understanding of Jesus as Christ (messiah).

And even if these sites attempt to explain that Yeshua is Mashiach, that is only of interest to religious Jews.

Similarly, one should not try to calculate the appointed time [for the coming of Moshiach].
