The picture in the OP is about what I always imagined he looked like when he walked the earth.
I grew up Baptist, I gave up religion a long time ago (shortly before I quit drinking actually), but as a child I believed, and it made sense to me a middle easterner would look middle eastern. |

You guys realize there are several physical descriptions of Jesus in Roman history, right?
And that those descriptions are all similar? And that they described him as blue eyed and ruddy complexion. |

Quoted: I wonder how much it bothers christians that Jesus didn't actually look like a white guy. When the romans came to arrest him, Judas had to point him out from the other jewish disciples because he didn't look any different from them. https://i.imgur.com/VjIEiAA.jpg Why would Jesus be white? And why would Christians be mad he isn't white? |

They also asked a bunch if Christians what God looked like and had a sketch artist compile the results. Looks like Elon Musk.

I thought that too, but then realized that he only capitalized proper names of people. He didn't capitalize "Jewish" or "Roman" either. I chalk it up to laziness and bad grammar, but not a deliberate act. |

Most of the pictures of Jesus I’ve seen in churches, literature, and art works all make him look like a 1970s southern rock guitarist. Pale skin, long-ish well-kept hair, pale eyes, and a glazed, blissful look on his face. Is he going to deliver the Sermon, or the Guitar Solo, on The Mount? |

This ridiculous accusation comes up here on GD in cycles that Christians can't handle the fact that Jesus was a Jew. Of course we know he was a Jew. An ETHNIC Jew!!!
We know he wasn't Caucasian Anglo-Saxon!!! There are reasons some of which may be anti-semetic that Classic and Renaissance and even some Romantic period art depicted Him as more white. But that is no reflection on the here and now. That has more to do with high church history and issues that the culture was dealing with at certain points on how to view the Jewish people. Some of it stems from the issue of historic Amillenialism and that the high church struggled to figure out what to do with the Jewish people because having murdered Jesus, it was their view that there was no more use for them and God had permanently cut them off and had taken up His kingdom program with the Church. Therefore the Jews were under God's curse and they didn't want to portray them ethnically in their artwork and stained glass windows. A little study could have figured this out but no, we have to just keep throwing this on GD for at least the 6th time since I have been a member here since before 2001. Get off it already. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I've always thought that CK had a strong middle eastern look to him, and that his "real" momma might be lying (or guessing?) I hope he sees this picture and comes to a similar conclusion, it would be entertaining. Kapernick is adopted. He was born in Algeria or Morocco and came to the US as a baby. No idea if he has any idea who his birth mother is or if she is alive. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Based on Jesus' ethnicity and his region and the time period, it looks plausible. Jesus was a Jew living in the Middle East some 2,000 years ago. He would look pretty similar to most people who live in the area today. +1 Exactly. Nothing at all surprising. |
