Neither JESUS the Christ or Adam and Eve Or Moses and his First Wife were of the Caucsian European Race.JESUS was from the Middle East and not Europe which made him (Arabic Semitic) No Blond Hair..No Blue Eyes..No White Skin. Israel was destroyed 70 years after the death of Christ 2,000 years ago give or take a few years and all of the JEWS were taken into the Roman Empire Which Is Almost All Of Known Europe , giving the JEWS the appearance of being Caucasian , but as a matter of fact the Term Caucasian covers both White and Non-White Races Populated By People Of Color
In The Middle Eastern Region. The Arabic Semitic Translation Of The Word (Adam) means taken from the (Red Soil or Earth) and that would make both Adam and Eve Reddish Brown People proving the theory that white people came from black people or people of color.Moses one of the most respected JEW in all of known histoy Married a Blueberry Black African Woman as his Fist Wife (which) his sister showed Disapprved Of By Vocalizing Her Racist Attitudes Toward Moses And His Wife Therefore Bringing About The Judgement Of GOD Against Mose Sister, read your Bibles People Do You Think That Moses First Wife Wasn't A JEW Being Married To Moses.
The only reason I brought all of this up is , the excuse that a lot of black people and people of color bring up all the time (I'm Not Serving A White Man GOD. Some People Can Be So Superficious And Shallow but it doesn't bother me The Color Of Your JESUS.

Jesus was Jewish so he looked like a typical Middle Eastern Jew or like a modern day Sephardic Jew.

A.) No it wasn't. It was part of northeastern Africa and part of the southwestern Middle East.

B.) The Egyptian Empire was loooong gone by the time of Jesus. Judea was part of the Roman Empire at the time. They got it from the Greeks, who got it from the Persians, yada-yada-yada. The Egyptians hadn't been in charge in that part of the world for many hundreds of years during the time of the birth of Jesus.

Jewish is a culture, made up of many races (especially today). But during the time of Jesus in that part of the world, the so-called "Jews" were still pretty much one people --- brown skin, dark hair, medium build.

No. He doesn't. Jesus was neither black nor white. He was brown. And there were no hispanics during that time.

The overwhelming evidence probably has something to do with it.

Seriously though. There is zero evidence that Mary was of African origin. She came from a long line of Jewish folks. She lived among Jewish folks in what was then called Judea. She was thoroughly Jewish, and so was her Son.

If by "black" you mean "African," then you are most correct. The peoples of Africa are the most genetically diverse on the planet.

Yes, we have. He was a middle-eastern Jew. Most likely had dark hair and brown skin, just like the rest of His people in that part of the world at the time. But He was no more an African than He was a European or a North American.

So, what's your point? It's 2008. It was a different world 2000 years ago.

But really... it doesn't matter. Really. God loves all people and He expects us to do the same.

"Jewish" denotes a religion, yes. But, its origin comes simply from denoting "Judea" as distinct from "Israel", when the kingdom split. Where did the Israelites come from? According to the book of Genesis, Abraham came from Ur of the Chaldees, which was in Mesopotamia. So, yes, Jesus was Jewish which at the time denoted "Semitic"--of the same racial type as Phoenicians or Babylonians.

Default would you reconize him

Todd Agnews song "My Jesus" IMO: sums up the peoples view of Jesus

Which Jesus do you follow?Which Jesus do you serve?If Ephesians says to imitate ChristThen why do you look so much like the world?Cause my Jesus bled and diedHe spent His time with thieves and liarsHe loved the poor and accosted the arrogantSo which one do you want to be?Blessed are the poor in spiritOr do we pray to be blessed with the wealth of this landBlessed are they that hunger and thirst for righteousnessOr do we ache for another taste of this world of shifting sandCause my Jesus bled and died for my sinsHe spent His time with thieves and sluts and liarsHe loved the poor and accosted the richSo which one do you want to be?Who is this that you followThis picture of the American dreamIf Jesus was here would you walk right by on the other side or fall down and worship at His holy feetPretty blue eyes and curly brown hair and a clear complexionIs how you see Him as He dies for Your sinsBut the Word says He was battered and scarredOr did you miss that partSometimes I doubt we'd recognize HimCause my Jesus bled and diedHe spent His time with thieves and the least of theseHe loved the poor and accosted the comfortableSo which one do you want to be?Cause my Jesus would never be accepted in my churchThe blood and dirt on His feet would stain the carpetBut He reaches for the hurting and despised the proudI think He'd prefer Beale St. to the stained glass crowdAnd I know that He can hear me if I cry out loudI want to be like my Jesus!I want to be like my Jesus!Not a posterchild for American prosperity, but like my JesusYou see I'm tired of living for success and popularityI want to be like my Jesus but I'm not sure what that means to be like You JesusCause You said to live like You, love like You but then You died for meCan I be like You Jesus?I want to be like my JesusSo does it matter what color?<IMG height=1 width=1 border=0 src?http: ● Christian Rock Lyrics .php?>

Why do you keep limiting black to african. I think because america has tried to lock black people in. With the term african american. When everybody asian, whites, blacks, native americans, hispanics, are from africa. And there are people who would considered themsevles black in every part of the world today. White people are from africa also because they came from a black man adam in africa. Of course africa is where mankind started. But some people were nomads which means travelers through the sand. They traveled and found many new lands.
You say jesus was not black or white. But brown which is not a race. Black people can be brown but whites cant. Whites came from blacks who traveled into europe. Who face cold weather unlike blacks who stayed. In the hot places like the middle east and africa. So after thousands of years. One group skin stayed the same and one got lighter. Thats why some white women can have black hair. Unlike black girls who will never have blonde hair.
Again middle-eastern jew is not a race. Do you really think people. Who live in the middle east. Call themselves middle-eastern. No they don't at all. You still haven't told me what race he is. Osama bin laden does not call his self middle eastern. Saddam would not call his self middle-eastern either. Because there are diffrent types of religions, and races that make up the middle east today. Because it goes back to what i said earlier. The middle east and especially egypt was conquered by romans, greeks, arabs, persians, libiyans, and others.

And it is a big deal. That in 2008 the majority the black population in palestine. Still live in jericho. Even after thousands of years. Because joshua fought the battle of jericho.

I do agree that god loves everybody. But his race does matter, especially since if he was black. Because our country has a long history against blacks or other races. You do know the romans put him on the cross. To make a statement like how dare this man opposed the great roman empire.


This is what i mean when i say. Every race came from blacks. A black man in africa named adam.

Um...yes, the Romans put him on the cross, but it was not to make the statement that you mentioned. Pilate finally agreed to the crucifixion after the Jews demanded it. Pilate wanted nothing to do with it. His words were, "I see no fault in this man." He ended up washing his hands of the whole affair. To me that doesn't sound like they were making a statement.

The proper name for Jesus is Yahweh the letter j wasnt made until some great time in A.D.Jesus and Israelites are black/brown skined people not african nor white. In those times the borders and contries wre very different then they are now africa is a continent so therfore it wasnt know to be Africa in Christ times. also Egypt wasnt called that it was nammed years after their slavry era because the word egypt means bondage/slavery in hebrew. So i do agree he is black/brown but his race is a Israelites. The europeans took Jesuse's name and background and made it theres. As for the shroud it was deemed a fake and even if it wasnt they have no proof it was even Jesus's shroud. I could go on all night about the Israelites and Jesus but its up to you to find the truth if its in your heart.

Hi, I came across photos of black aborigine children who have blonde hair. I think that their hair tends to darken as they grown older. God bless.
