Does the Bible indicate, definitely, the color of the Hebrews? This question is important, because the Hebrews are the central figures upon whom the Bible is based.

9 out of 10 White Supremacist would agree with that.
But unfortunately, it's just not true.

They probably looked like the present day Muslims. The Diaspora caused their blood to be mixed with that of the Europeans either by choice or by rape, as a child born of a Hebrew woman is a Hebrew.

There were a lot of different people back then who turned to the Hebrews' beliefs. They were from many different places and peoples. So, you can bet that they were not all white.
I wish I could give you scripture and verse but I just can not remember how I learned this from the Old Testament.
EDIT: Hebrews are a beautiful olive skin colored.

Mediterranean peoples are olive skinned in color. Example: southern italians are darker that northern italians. So to say any group is white is to distinguish between distance from the equator. If you are considering the "lost" tribes of Israel, they were never lost. They were moved to Babylon (current day Iraq).

The Hebrews were a Mid Eastern tribe and looked like all the other Mid Eastern tribes.
They were not white.

Jesus was born to a Hebrew so no He is not white. Jews have always been Jew-like except when they intermarried with non-Jews

They were all "brown" people. Think about the part of the world they lived in.
