Jesus middle eastern?

GodLovesCats · Jul 2, 2019

If "Abdomni" means both red hair and golden hair, why isn't anyone suggesting Jesus is blonde? It seems all images of Mary depict her as a blonde woman.

Israeli properly means someone born or naturalized in the modern (post 1948) state of Israel.

Throughout the OT God calls the nation Israel, so I can't imagine the name never existed before 1948.

Where does the Bible use the term "Israeli?"

BCV, please.

I agree. If I ever meet Jesus he will be middle eastern I think.

You know Middle Eastern people are Caucasian people right? same same..

You seem to have a real problem with that..

No I don't have a problem with that. I'm having an open discussion really.

What is BCV?

I did not say the Bible includes Israeli. God called the nation Israel. Or did OT authors make that up?

I like a lot of the Eastern Orthodox images of Christ; they often depict Him as having bronze or ochre colored skin, dark brown hair, and dark eyes. Very beautiful.

Dark-skinned people always have black hair regardless of their heritage. Jesus must be white to have any other hair color.

I'm still formulating my beliefs on the subject and I wanted to thank you guys for weighing in with your ideas!

I think he meant "Book, Chapter, Verse."

And God called the ancient nation (which included all 12 tribes) "Israel," and the people "Israelites" (not "Israelis").

That's not quite true. There are dark-skinned blonde-haired people in the Pacific.

GodLovesCats · Jul 2, 2019

There are dark-skinned people who dye their hair blonde. Are you sure that is natural?

Thanks I'm always open for discussion. Which pictures?

Pictures that show a Caucasian and a middle eastern of course

Yes, it is. I linked to an explanation: here it is again.

I believe he was most likely Middle Eastern.
Hence why the satanic system is targeting brown people or those of color.

I grew up LDS and have Caucasian pictures of Jesus. I was taken by surprise at one vision I had of Heavenly Father's spirit and realized that I really didn't know what Jesus looks like. That was a turning point in my belief regarding his likeness. Not that it really matters. He is Jesus after all is said and done. But it's fun to discuss for me.

If the word "Caucasian" means anything at all, it includes Middle Eastern people.

Here, once again, are the European (Greek Cypriot) woman and the Middle Eastern (Samaritan) woman I posted before, plus another European (Italian) woman and another Middle Eastern (Assyrian) woman (all in random order). Can you tell which is which?

1. Sofi Tsedaka (Samaritan), 2. Monica Belluci (Italian), 3. Rosie Malek-Yonan (Assyrian), 4. Anna Vissi (Greek Cypriot)

Nobody really knows exactly. And perhaps God wanted it that way.

Yea I kinda wonder about that because doesn't the bible say that the apostles didn't recognize him when He visited them after the resurrection? Luke 24:16

Jesus middle eastern?
