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 dont think this thread is worth makin a real comment about tha topic.
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".Originally Posted by Hulud
i might have a reply if that made any fukin since..Originally Posted by Tasuki_Civic
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.Originally Posted by Hulud
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 populationthe thing i dont get is why is he depicted as a white guy?![]()
jews=people of jerusalem?Originally Posted by metalman
Val for President
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.Originally Posted by Hulud
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.Originally Posted by noodle
with that statement you can also argue that those same rich people who created jesus' image could have created the story of jesus....Originally Posted by noodle
some food for thought
Val for President
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.Originally Posted by Hulud
Theres plenty there for the discerning eye.
Besides, rich people often have not much use for Jesus in general.![]()
and theres proof of jesus?Originally Posted by metalman

kings did (werent they rich? yes thats right they were)
they said they were given divine right to the throne![]()
Val for President
and more specifically towards jesus. it was used to keep people in line
"turn the other cheek" - when your getting oppressed by the king just sit back and take it
think about that...

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.
Yes... its all around you. In fact your own body and concience contains proof.Originally Posted by Hulud
Claming to be gods or have "divine rights" is not even related to having use for Jesus. On the contrary, its against Him.apparently they did![]()
