He was born in Bethlehem of Judea, which is in the middle east, so more than likely he was Middle Eastern.

Well if you meet someone (alive) that has seen Jesus Christ theirself, let me know. Other than that, nobody can say for sure. In the bible, it describes Jesus as having "skin of bronze" and "hair of wool" and that, to me, sounds like it's possible that He could be Black. But if you also think about it, think about where Jesus was environmental-wise. Bethlehem, Jereusalem, Nazereth; all those areas - are a part of Africa. If you are of light complextion and you were somewhere where you were exposed to the sun/heat all day everyday, you'd have "skin of bronze" too. It shouldn't matter though what "color" Jesus was......He died for all of us. As far as I'm concerned, no matter if you are Black or White or somewhere in between, you are my brother/sister. And we're all going to the same place (God say the same).

Well, if the Romans didn't know which one was Jesus who says that Judas kissed the right one anyway.It has been said that they couldn't tell them apart.I guess he didn't have any previous arrest records with his mugshot. It seems that noone knows what Jesus had looked like or whether anyone would recognize him when he returns.You might check his High School class photos though. Good luck.

Look at the facts. He was born and lived in the middle east area of the world. He was Jewish. He is depicted as white because of Europeans who did not want to have black religous figure.

Given who his human dad and mom have been, the present dominant opinion between scholars is that he maximum probable grow to be a Galilean Jew and for this reason could have effective factors which resemble modern-day persons of center jap or Semitic descent. yet needless to say Jesus have been given his divinity from our Father, God. So in that component he's akin to all persons, and previous the constraints of race and shade.

2,000 years ago in north African continent...i'd take a wild guess and say he was black not even biege or brown. the Caucasians were still tribal nomads learning how to be vikings and conquerors, so the fair skinned and fine boned qualities had not invaded the spieces yet. even the ancient romans and greeks were darker complected than any holywood movie ever made them out to be.

No he was a Jew. Everyone knows Jews can't be black. Jews are good with money. But seriously... he was of Middle Eastern decent so his skin would be brownish. Like he had gotten a bad tan.

Jesus christ is the begotten son God. I don't think Jesus had a race color. I think he is a spirit.

If he was black he would be from Africa but he is from Middle East so he was tan.
