The Color of His Skin

[Lamb]

What shade of color do you think Jesus' skin was? Not that it matters but we've all seen the white Jesus paintings and we've probably even seen some dark ones. Scripture tells us He wasn't good looking but in art and movies he's something to behold.

Olive would be my guess

White guy. Blond hair. I have proof.

 

[Josiah]

I saw Him in a movie once, and yup - He was blonde/blue.

White

My beloved is white and ruddy,
Chief among ten thousand.
11His head is like the finest gold;
His locks are wavy,
And black as a raven.
12 His eyes are like doves
By the rivers of waters,
Washed with milk,
And fitly set.

I don't know. But given the area, I would think He looked more ruddy.

Yeah pale white with all that sunshine is quite impossible.
I couldn't stay white when I went to Israel.
A tan like Nethanyahu maybe.
