ummm.... wow.
Jesus was Jewish. Olive skin, but not black. I think it is funny, though, to see all of those pictures of him as a white man... he definitely wasn't white.
"POSSIBLY BEACUSE ONE TIME IN ISRAEL THEY'VE BEEN TO EGYPT TO ENSLAVE THEMSELVES THERE AND CROSSBREED FOR FORTY YEARS, SO WE CAN ONLY CONCLUDE THE POSSIBILITY"--- not really... Jesus lineage was listed in the Bible (Matthew 1) as having decended from Jewsih heritage, the only non-Jew in his lineage was Rahab " 5Salmon the father of Boaz, whose mother was Rahab, Boaz the father of Obed, whose mother was Ruth, "

Jesus was of Jewish descent. He was undoubtedly a dark,
brown-skinned man.
People who are contentious about these things are missing the point. That no matter who you are. Black, white, red, yellow, or
brown. We all have a spirit within. A beautiful being of light and love. And we are all Gods children.

Considering the area where he was born I would say it is likely that if he wasn't black, he was at least Arabic. It's why I want to laugh at all the artwork and such portraying him as a blonde haired, blue eyed white boy. There's no way, not in that area of the world.

Jesus was born in Israel and is pretty much all Hebrew. He is described with olive skin, so not Black or White. You can say that he is: Israeli, Jewish, Hebrew, Middle-Eastern and Mediterranean.

I saw this same question once. They said Jesus was a Jew and Jews had olive skin. I think they even had scriptures to show this that Jesus had olive skin.

I dunno. You mean african black? I doubt it.
He was and is a Jew. Jews are dark skinned. Black? hmmmm. maybe some are really darker than others.
Kinda like whites. some is really white, and some tan, and some really tan.
He could NOT have been different than other babies around him, or the King would not have had all babies killed. he could have looked at Jesus and instantly seen a "different" color. It was His "walk and Talk" that seperated Him from others, not His skin color.

No.
He was 100% Hebrew, a Jew. And they did not marry outside there race back then (not as often has they do now). Mary Was Hebrew in good standings with the Lord- Meaning she was was a good Jew from a good Hebrew family who up held there laws and beliefs.

Jesus came from Israel. As such, He was probably between white and black, something like brown.

NO
He would look like most middle eastern men.
He was a son of King David. That is of the king line of Israel.
The same color as Abraham the father of most of the middle east.
