I believe the Bible about all descriptions. Isn't it interesting that skin color was never an issue in the Biblical descriptions? Racism or any other discrimination was based on religious belief, ethnic background, or monetary wealth and position. Color is not as heavily considered. This may be why He is mentioned primarily in terms of hair texture. Also, if you look at the physical description of God, God the Father is shown to have white woolly hair. This is why most depictions of God show an elder man with white woolly hair. This also may be why Santa Claus is shown this way, not just due to the Catholic, St Nicholas.
No matter what color He was and is, the sacrifice, the precious
Blood , And the name of Jesus matter more than

Jesus most definately was not blond when He walked on the earth. He had near black if not black hair, and olive skin. He was of the tribe of Judah.
Furthermore since a woman never has a child darker than his darkest parent that means Adam was a black man

I think we all have Jesus in our mind/heart to look something familar to us. For me he is dark skin and wooly hair, but to someone else he can be white and hippy looking and that's okay. I think it's what's in your heart.

Neither. Jesus was jewish. I think he looked similar to jews today, medium brown olive skin and dark hair. Straight or curly, who knows. But I imagine that Jesus wasn't blond thought.

Dark-skinned, short and wooly-haired. That's probably the closest to reality.

Does it matter what He looked like? He's probably the most desired person ever as far as everyone wanting Him to be of their race. Whites portray Him as white, blacks portray Him as black, but in fact He was a Jew, and if he'd been a blue eyed, blond Jew, it would have been a bit freaky so would have been mentioned in the bible. It wasn't mentioned, so I'm guessing He looked like a typical Jewish man of that time, with the exception of His eyes, which must have been incredibly kind.

As the headquarters of christianity moved to Europe...Jesus had a face lift to look Europeen.
In fact...considering that the poor guy is 2000 years old...he must have had several face lift.
I always think of him as a long-haired white hippy of the late sixties. I saw him at Woodstock. Later he took Jimi Hendrix back with him...because he wanted to learn to play the guitar like him.

Well, sad to say, Jesus was not a white boy.
Man, the whole blond Jesus thing drives me nuts - come on, people, he was from the freakin' Middle East?!?

believe JESUS no matter what HIS physical appearance may have been. however, believe in a darker skinned middle Eastern look with curly hair would be more accurate. personally don't care though as GOD, JESUS and THE HOLY GHOST - HOLY SPIRIT will all appear to each mortal as that mortal expects THEM to when the time comes.
