His skin of brozne, head of wool, and eyes of Fire? There is no real truth of the "only begotten son", If there is no true infromation about a persons life over time, you can fabricate what you want others to believe, It's like giving a baby a pacifier, to stop them from crying. So what truths do you really know about Jesus, the bible has been written in many versions and has been tainted so many times, it's not reliable. If you find out about his life from 14 to 32 you will know the real Jesus, the Messiah, who had to find his innerdivinety, nothing is just bestowed upon us, If you seek, you will find, Jesus had to seek, to find God. Don't you search for truths or do you let them come hit you in the face.
Think about it before you answer.

First of all, the descriptions you are giving are of what Jesus is now. When he walk this earth he was born in Nazereth to a Jewish family. His mother was Jewish so that would make him of Jewish descent (dark hair, olive skin).
The description that you are questioning is the way all people will see him when they face him. He has skin of bronze (olive colored) head of wool (white) and eyes of Fire (he will be able to look into the soul of every individual and know their true intentions and thoughts.
If you look at the Bible in it's original writing- Greek, Aramaic and Hebrew you will find that the New American Standard most closely follows it.
If someone wrote a book about you, would they describe every waking minute of your day or would they hit on the key points? And does them not reporting on your 14 to 32 year mean that they are not writing fact?
Do you seek the truth or are you holding to a lie by using human reason? I have sought God and believe what I do not because of human reason but because of the facts that have been proven.

This is what I read- though as a Christian, I do not believe it.
They say that the stories of Jesus between those ages were once included in the Bible, but were edited out because it made Jesus look too human... I think I read that he was an outcast in a way, that the other children would pick on him because he was so different in the way he spoke and acted.
Supposedly, these stories were edited out of the bible because the church leaders felt that no one would want to follow a savior that was beaten-up and riddiculed as a child.
Try finding a book called, "Lost Books of the Bible" or something like that. You might find the stories in there.

Reality is that he was closer to being black than white. In the part of the world where he was born, people generally have an olive compexion. Add to this the fact that he was outdoors pretty much all of the time in the sun. His skin, as with anyother human gets darker after being exposed to direct sunlight for any length of time. As to his life from 13-33, not much is known--there is specuation that he became a member of the Essenes, a fundamentalist sect of the Jewish religion. Other than that, who can say.

Jesus would have had an Eastern Mediterranean appearance in common with the rest of 1st century Jews. The "skin of bronze ..." quote is from a vision of the glorified Jesus after the Ascension.
We are not told anything about Jesus from 12 years old until his ministry started except:
Luke 2: 52 And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.
That's all we are told and speculation is pointless.

That shouldn't matter. Jesus is immortal, He's not like us. . The bible says that after the tower of bable (story of after noahs ark, the people tried to build a big tower so if another flood happened they wouldn't die.), there were different languages-making people move to different parts of the world. Jesus (God) existed before, so he's not any nessisarily black or white. Jesus was spending time with his father, preaching, healing, and teaching followers from that time. It says in the New testament that when he was a child he entered the tabranacle and began teaching. Read the gospels , (Matthew, Mark, etc)

Jesus was a medium-skinned Arab.
He's brother Mohammad was a shade darker & the founder of the Islamic Faith.
He despised the Jews 4 killing his brother & broke away from Christianity
I have now decided 2 stop over-complicating what God wants after I sought the Truth & found Even more questions that need answers!

Jesus wasn't white or black. Bronze skin is like middle of the road, head of wool means his hair was more than likely curly. Eyes of fire means he probably had very beautiful light brown eyes. Not much is known about Jesus before he started his ministry.
Just ask God about it if/when you get to heaven.

Different groups portray him as both white, black and
a few other races. It's not the color of the skin that matters,
it's the message. I'm white. If Jesus is black, it wouldn't
mean that I respected him any less.
As far as what he was doing between 13-33 years old, since
he was a boy of human flesh, he most likely did what they all
do. Lived life, learned his step-father's trade and went to temple
to pray.

Jesus, when He walked the earth, was Middle Eastern. The stereotypical image of him as a WASP is not correct. Regardless of your belief of Jesus, there is more non-Biblical evidence of Him on earth than we have of Julius Ceasar.
As for 13-33 all we know for sure is He grew
The information you quote is how He appears now in heaven

Jesus was born to the King line of Juda, and through Mary also the priest line of juda.
So Jesus looked like a common Jew.
It is bleaved that jesus went with his uncle to the tin mines of Ireland.
