What did Jesus REALLY look like?


Disclaimer: I am not making fun of Jesus Christ here. He was a real historical figure. The fact that there is much debate about him being the son of God and so forth is for another conversation. I just find it interesting that many Christians are so passionate about this.

Over the last few years, the actual image of Jesus, what he really looked like, has stirred up controversy. It is pretty apparent that the image that is accepted worldwide is one of a rather European-looking fellow with long hair and a beard. Sort of like how all movies about Ancient Rome or Greece depict the citizens living in that Mediterranean area of antiquity as having British accents. If someone hopped in a time machine and went back to the old Roman Empire, they would probably say “hey, why doesn’t everyone sound like Elizabeth Hurley and Prince Harry?” But I digress.

The picture below shows you the “fake” Jesus, and then what he probably really looked like based on the region in which he lived. This caused absolute pandemonium in the Christian community…I mean, “that’s NOT the Jesus in that big picture at my church…blasphemy!”

Well now, my friends, scholars and theologians have finally settled on what the REAL Jesus looked like. Definitive, end of story.

That’s right, folks. Jesus looked like Kenny Loggins. You are now free to move about the cabin.

    Both images couldn’t be more far from the truth! Let me help everyone out who reads the bible & most importantly believe in the word, read revelations 1:13-15 & of course you can find the same description in Daniel 7. The bible is written to the Hebrew Israelites not the fake “Jewish” people who occupy Israel today. Most Gentiles won’t under the word of God as so as most religions because once again the bible is of the real Hebrew Israelites history. Please find some understanding before falsifying the lord scriptures on the web. Check out http://www.thecoi.com to gain clarity unto the word of God.

    I am a believer in Yeshua ah Messiah, and I totally agree with you!! Yeshua would have looked to his contemporaries as just an another ordinary Jew. It is only by the Holy Spirit that people (then and now) can recognize that this simple ordinary Jew can be the Savior of our souls. All of us who are followers of Yeshua – Jew or Gentile – are eagerly anticipating His return as Messiah!!! Love you all.
