You seem to be one of the people who think "Jew"s existed back then in yet think Jesus was not one. (rare to see such a level of misunderstanding)

Two types of Jew: ethnically / religiously. Jesus was a Jew in both of those senses.
He completed the Jewish religion by serving as the Messiah (Christ) whom the prophets had long foretold.
The completed form of the Jewish religion is known as Christianity.
Jesus was a Jew by descent, and He lived a Jewish life.
Born in Judah to a Jewish mother
Raised in Galilee in a Jewish home.
Taught in Jerusalem, the Jewish capital.
Ministered throughout Israel: “He came to His own [the Jewish people], and His own [the Jews] did not receive Him” (John 1:11, NKJV).
Jesus said, “You [Gentiles] worship what you do not know; we [Jews] know what we [Jews] worship, for salvation is of the Jews” (John 4:22).
The son of David, the son of Abraham” (Matthew 1:1).
When the angel Gabriel announced Jesus’ birth, he spoke of Jesus’ having “the throne of his father David” and of His “reign over Jacob’s descendants forever” (Luke 1:32–33).
In writing of Jesus’ unique priesthood, the author of Hebrews says, “It is clear that our Lord descended from Judah” (Hebrews 7:14).
Judah was a son of Jacob, and it’s from his name that we get the word Jew.
Mary’s genealogy, in Luke chapter 3, shows that the mother of Jesus was a direct descendant of King David, giving Jesus the legal right to the Jewish throne and establishing without a doubt that Jesus was a Jew by descent.
Jesus’ parents were careful to do all that the law required of them (Luke 2:39).
Jesus often taught in synagogues (Matthew 13:54; Luke 6:6; John 18:20), and even in the temple (Luke 21:37).
In His teaching, Jesus pointed to the Law and the Prophets as authoritative (Matthew 5:17; 12:5; Mark 10:19)
He taught others to keep the law (Matthew 23:1–3)
He Himself observed the commandments.
Jesus identified with the religion of the Jews and was considered a rabbi (John 1:38; 6:25)
He strongly rejected the pharisaical reinterpretation of the religion.
As a Jew, Jesus observed Passover (John 2:13)
The Feast of Tabernacles (John 7:2, 10)
Hanukkah, (John 10:22)
Jesus was called the King of the Jews (Mark 15:2).
The Messiah prophesied in the Old Testament was a Jewish savior, one chosen by God for a special purpose. The Messiah was to serve God by redeeming Israel and then ruling from Zion, bringing peace, righteousness, and security to Israel (see Isaiah 9:6—7; 32:1; Jeremiah 23:5; Zechariah 9:9).
Jesus is the Jewish Messiah, the Son of David sent to the Jews, and in His earthly ministry He focused on “the lost sheep of Israel” (Matthew 15:24). But in His death and resurrection, Jesus secured salvation for all who would trust in Him, regardless of their nationality or background. The Jewish Messiah became the worldwide Savior (Ephesians 2:11–22).
