  • Does that really matter? We are all people, if you focus on race then there are some serious issues there

  • Well, considering that I was not around when Jesus walked the earth, I have no idea. He was who He was and He is who He is and that's all that matters.

  • well he could have been Hispanic :). according to the bible (which I don't hold much faith in sorry to those who do) he was most likely a Galilean Jew and thus would have features which resemble modern-day persons of Middle Eastern or Semitic descent.

  • Relgiously, he was a Jew. Given the location of Israel, Jerusalem, etc He may have looked more middle Eastern, then European.

  • First off the post is a bit derogatorily put. Secondly there are three of the same kind that could've been summed together because they all have the same answer. Their skin was dark. This is based off of where they were. Sabrina is most likely correct in the middle eastern answer.
