I'm just seeing if there can be one question where the vast majority can agree. If this doesn't work, my next question is going to be, "Do you think Jesus was born in Bethlehem?

It's getting to be a need for the vast majority to agree over something simple, if for no other reason then to remind ourselves we do agree about something when it comes to Jesus.

Maybe start small and work our way up?

Ans if the majority can agree, what can we work up to?

I think Jesus did have dark hair because the people from the Middle East usually have dark hair. Plus it's a dominant gene. But of course I'm not 100% sure. Just a guess.

And yes, he was born in Bethlehem, like the Bible tells us. :D

My mental image of Jesus has always had dark brown hair. I don't know why. How long do you think was His hair?

If a Semitic man and a Semitic woman have a child together the likelihood of dark hair is virtually 100%.

With God replacing the male parent it is impossible to predict because you have gone totally outside the gene pool.

My gut response is most likely.

Yes, I truly do. Now how do I feel about it? It does not matter. To me it is like folks who worry about th ecolor of skin and/or other ethnic (as they are called) traits characteristics, none of which have anything to do with the soul. Either we are all descended from Adam, or we are not. When people cannot get past the color os skin, those people are not prepared for teh Kingdom of God. One bit of good new, now matter how we are here, come the Kingdom, we will all be just like Jesus Christ. We do not know how that is, but we will. Now, we will be like He, we will not be He, and this is such a glorious condition to hoe for. Just like our Savior, incredible. Praise Jesus Christ, amen.

Whatever He looked like, He wasn't handsome so that He might be desired. (Isaiah 53:2)

Jesus was Jewish, not an American. The pictures we have of Jesus was given to us by Satan to mislead people. Jesus was Jewish and Jesus did look a lot like what the Jewish people look like today.

i can't really say much about the description of Jesus since i never seen Him, but there are descriptions of Him by people outside the bible that have told what they seen. Publius Lentullus described it as being the color of the chestnut, full ripe. The letter from Pontious Pilate to Tiberius Caeser described His hair being golden colored. From other descriptions i've read i believe it was a golden color.

This is silly. Of course He had blonde hair and blue eyes. I've seen the pictures. Honestly!!! Do you think "anyone" would ever just interject their own opinions?

The very first picture of Jesus I ever laid my eyes on was from this old book:



I'm still unsure if Jesus did have short hair or long hair.

In the Song of Solomon, if you believe the man is representative of our Blessed Lord and Savior, He describes himself as dark. I would imagine black hair just would accompany being dark, but not always. So what have I added here? Not much.

I don't think He was the blue-eyed blondish Jesus I have seen depicted as knocking at the door in pictures, but we all hav our ideas. Actually, I do not, not really. It will be glorious to see Him when He returns. I can say this in all certain ty, He will not look anything like people around the world have depicted Him................but He is glorious forever, amen.
