What’s With This Goy Jesus??

Jesus was a Jew, not a blue-eyed blonde or any other people group, but the Jews. Portraying Him any other way is to be denying who He was and create another Jesus. He came for all men, but He came as a Jew.

Well.....a fair skinned, blue eyed 1st century Jew is not the stereotype anyway (there were fair skinned, blue eyed Jews). Also, we can't ignore the inclusion of Gentiles when listing Jesus' ancestry.

My point? Maybe a dark skinned, browned eye image of Jesus is "creating another Jesus".

I think of Jesus as having the traits of a stereotypical Jew. But we really dont know.
