Check out the supposed origin of the Jewish Race.

There is no one physical race.

What Is "Jewish?"

Judaism is not a race because Jews do not share one common ancestry. For instance, Ashkenazi Jews and Sephardic Jews are both "Jewish." However, whereas Ashkenazi Jews often hail from Europe, Sephardic Jews often hail from the Middle East. People of many different races have become Jewish over the centuries.

Yes, my understanding is that he would look more like modern day Palestinians, than the Euro Jews in Israel.

Basically in modern America... he would fit part of the profile of a 'terrorist'.

Revelation 1:13-16
(13) And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
(14) His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
(15) And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
(16) And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.
Daniel 10:5-6
(5) Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz:
(6) His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.

Well, Jesus looks a little different now than before His crucifixion. His disciples had trouble recognizing Him when He appeared to them.

And when John, who was His favorite, saw Him in heaven, His appearance was such that He fell at His feet as a dead man. I believe that His skin color was like gold heated to read hot.

Right, and some see Jesus even today.

It is not really a pleasant experience most of the time. Usually, He uses His appearance to shake up a person who is really messed up with Him.

What? Where did you get this bologna from? Scripture says that none shall see Him
until we all do. Here, again, as is usual with this website, we see peoople saying things
so far from the Truth (scripture). And, by definition, a jew is a descendant from the
Tribe of Judah, so of course they have a common ancestry; however, as is the case
these days, the word Jew also refers to one who practices Judaism. As such, and since
Jesus was from the tribe of Judah (by Mary), he must look like a Jew, which is olived-skinned.

Did not John see Jesus?

Scripture does not say that none shall see Him.

Bologna for sure.

Considering the climate of the area, no, Jesus wasn't particularly white.

God is a man, however.
