Answer 2

Okie look, Jesus existed, and he was and always was Jewish. He was different than many Jews at the time because the Romans didn't like Jewish people, so many were afraid to speak up. Jesus preached basic morals (which appear in most religions) and a less orthodox version of Judaism. Some of his followers and St. Paul were the ones who spread rumors about how he was eternal and would come back in 2000 years (he never did..hmm) and basically the few differences there are between Christianity and Judaism. Seriously, unless Mary was asexual, there is no way that Jesus could have been born if she was a virgin, unless a virgin back then meant you had to be married, or the word could have been misinterpreted. That wouldn't be unlikely, considering the fact that Michaelangelo thought that he read in the Torah that horns were coming out of Moses' head, when it was really beams of light.

Answer 3

You are not interested in stupid questions you simply have no education in the fields you try to criticize and insult. Because there is no "stupid" questions, but the unasked one. So listen and learn, Jesus Christ of Nazareth was of Hebrew linage, a Jew a Son of Abraham. Hmmmm, Muslims are sons of Abraham too Dear. Maybe you will seek out some truths now and stop insulting.

Answer 4

Egyptians weren't Arabs, Egypt was like Greece where there were many different types people living there. Egyptian society was that as long as you accepted their soceity, their gods, their culture way of dress etc, then you were considered Egyptian and people traveled from all over to live there, in it's heyday.

Jesus would've been Semtic, Jewish.. I don't doubt the concept that there was probably a guy named Jesus who lived during that time, but just like many people of history, his followers blostered him to god-like status. The only difference between Jesus and some other men of history is that for some reason people today have kept him at that god like status. Where as other figures of history have been just seen as great (or sometimes infamous) men.

Answer 5

If Jesus was real, he would have left us with undenyable evidence, since he is supposed to be God. Unfortunately, there are only questionable accounts from flawed men. Your claim of Egyptians and native Americans is not definitive fact. Just because some geek with a college degree tells you his opinion, does not make his claim absolute truth.

Answer 6

Even if intelligent people may disagree about whether Jesus was God (I do not believe he was - I do not admit the God concept into my thinking)- We know that there WAS a historical Jesus.
The vast majority of historical scholars accept this as fact. We cannot be certain of the race, though the consensus is he had brown skin and resembled either a Moor or someone of Middle-Eastern ancestry.

Answer 7

Egyptians are Africans just as the country is also on the African continent. I've traveled there. American media only show the ones who look 'white'. Native Israelis are called Sabras, they too are black.

A few years ago Americans believed that Jesus was a Blonde, blue- eyed European - it only in the last two years he's now thought to be Middle-Eastern. I predict in the next 10 years he will be black. Remember you heard it here first.

Answer 8

we do know by reading the Bible that HE is God (john1-1).God therefor did not give Him a racial background so that we can all relate to Him as a human and not by his background. if you don't believe in Jesus and what He did for you and i on the cross then i pray that God will open your eyes spiritually before its too late and you would receive Him in your heart, admit that you're a sinner and repent. He will forgive you of your sin and you can spend eternity with Him and not in hell.

Answer 9

Jesus was an Israelite Jew. What ever the racial makeup of those people were 2000 years ago is similar to the Palestinians today.

Answer 10

In the holy Qur'an God stated clearly that Jesus or Isa ibn Mar-
yam was a human and appointed by Allah as a prophet.His mother Maria was a daughter of Imran prophet as descendan of Jacob prophet.They were Jewish as their racial background
.Moses prophet saved and brought them from Egypt accrossed the red sea to Palestine in the era of Fir'aun,because they were oppressed.God gave miracle to Moses by striking his stick on the sea water it was broken so Moses and his followers be saved by Allah
.

Answer 11

Because racial background was not important to the people in that historical time. So they didn't mention it when they wrote about Jesus.
