He, being a traditional Jewish Rabbi, would have had a beard. But it doesn't affect my faith

Jesus' beard has nothing to do with my life.

Shaving during Christ's time wasn't the most popular thing to do, unless one went to a barber or had their own barber for a servant. I don't believe Jesus would have had a servant and I don't imagine He would have gone to a barber to sit alongside nobles who discussed their nights of debauchery while getting a shave. Also, shaving would have been seen as a sign of vanity among the lesser classes.

Jesus would have followed the levitical law concerning growing a beard, though we often characterize him with a well trimmed beard. In truth, it doesn't bother me one way or the other, but this does raise an interesting question about just how long it might have been.
