    Default Jesus

    the thing i dont get is why is he depicted as a white guy?
    there were no white people in Jerusalem back then, and why are all the people depicted as white?

    I believe the bible claims him to have had blonde hair...but I'm not sure. Lemme look it up. If so, that explains why they thought he was white.

    Jesus was born into the jewish race, therefore one can deduct he would have been of a ruddy white complexion. The Bible speaks of white hair, like wool, but not in the context of His earthly body when living on earth.

    I believe ethnicity is the word. and their complextion and facial features are similar to anglo-europeans. so I can totally undersstand why Jesus would "look like a white man".

    Yes. Being jewish in this context is a middle eastern ethnicity, a race, not just a religion. I'm sorry, I thought everyone knew that. The children of Abraham are comprised two ethnicities of people, jews and palestinians. The jewish people are the children of Sarah. The palestinian are the children of Hagar. They are related.

    Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah, one of the sons of Jacob who was the grandson of Abraham.

    I think a lot of it has to do with who had all of the $$$ and time back then to paint the pictures. I'm sure the Kings and Popes of Europe during that time made sure that Jesus looked more like the Local population

    Not just ethnic jews are from Jerusalem. Palestinians and others are native of there too. The jewish bloodline extends throughout different parts of the world due to the fact the Jewish people (what we call Israeli) didnt have a homeland/Jewish state until 1949 and were scattered about.

    Tis true. Many depictions of "Jesus" show him to be pagan/roman catholic in his hand gestures and attire, something that would be quite removed from the truth.

    with that statement you can also argue that those same rich people who created jesus' image could have created the story of jesus....

    some food for thought

    You can argue anything, including that...however you wouldnt have any proof of such. Also, you have many Biblical prophecys written years before Jesus, or any pope, very accurate timelines and details written in advance.
    Theres plenty there for the discerning eye.

    Besides, rich people often have not much use for Jesus in general.

    Remember when you were little, and you had to draw a dinosaur, and your teacher said you can color them any color and pattern that you want because scientist only found the bones so they dont even know their real color. Well same thing applies for Jesus, except the dinosaurs used to exist.

    Claming to be gods or have "divine rights" is not even related to having use for Jesus. On the contrary, its against Him.
