Jews are not any less guilty of selective interpretation of scripture than anybody else. This is a 2000 year old argument. Of course, the Jews of Jesus' day wouldn't have had a problem with Jesus if they believed He was the Messiah! None of us are experts here. If one side can quote Scripture to support his own belief, there's nothing stopping the other side from doing the very same thing. As I said, this is a 2000 year old argument and it's going to get none of us anywhere.
If Jesus is not the Messiah, then Jews shouldn't be treating him with any respect at all, because a gifted, learned and respected man like him who went around calling himself the son of God would have been a complete loony, not to mention a heretic, and it would be wrong to say he was a great teacher, if he was in fact a heretic. (This is the C.S. Lewis argument, from Mere Christianity) If Jesus is the Messiah, then all the Scripture-quoting and debunking in the world can't make him NOT the Messiah. Either He is the Messiah, the Son of the Living God, Lamb of God, etc. or He isn't. That was the argument then, just like it is now. Christians accept Jesus as the Messiah, most Jews don't. I believe Jesus is the Messiah as foretold in the Scriptures. I don't know why I believe while others don't. I don't even know why I butted in, except maybe to point out that "proving" it one way or the other is futile, but I felt the need to get it off my chest.
(.....Butting out)
The truth is knowable, by simple thought experiments as pointed out by C.S. Lewis and others. (Occam's Razor, etc.)
Telling others the truth they don't want to hear is worthwhile. For one thing, Jesus commanded it. For another, you remove the ignorance excuse.
When someone disagrees with me, I try to make time to consider their argument. As a result, I have changed my position on important doctrinal points. I realized that I was wrong when I looked into the matter being debated. On the other hand, it has also made me a lot more contentious with those who pose arguments I have considered and rejected.
I realize that error is often the result of a closed mind that refuses to be educated, not always the result of starting out believing the wrong things or disagreements about "interpretation."
