And Spaniards are European, but also Caucasians. North Africans are also
Caucasians. Not that is matters since Jesus was not from North Africa.
Many believe that Spaniards and many Europeans have African heritage. Genetic evidence indicates that North Africans are a mixture of African, Asian, and European. Jesus lived in North Africa when he was young and also the Hebrews were of mixed heritage, including African heritage. Labels like Caucasian and Negroid do not really apply because they are manmade descriptions and not found in the scriptures. God bless.
The real question is, how would you feel if Jesus was "African looking?" whatever that is, or had African ancestry, or was black? Would it matter to you? Would you still love Him just the same? Would you worship Him and embrace Him? Does it matter to you today?? I believe that one day it won't matter because regardless of how He looks, all will embrace Him. Color and race are not important to God and this should not be important to us who call ourselves, believers. God bless.
I have never heard of a African Jesus, but have been told the African Methodist black churches do have a black Jesus. I have never seen a Black Jew either. Paul
Roman historian Tacitus wrote that many of his time believed that the Jews "were a race of Ethiopian origin."
"
The relationship between blacks and Jews has been portrayed in film, stand-up comedy and in books such as Jews and Blacks, the Color of Water and Black, White and Jewish, to name a few. Now, new scientific research shows that African Americans and Jewish people have more in common than a history of oppression. According to the research, Jews across the board--the Ashkenazim from northern Europe, the Sephardim from Italy, Turkey and Greece, and the Mizrahim from Syria, Iraq and Iran--have between 3 to 5 percent of sub-Saharan African ancestry.
Researchers from Harvard Medical School arrived at the finding by examining more than a half-million "DNA markers across the entire genomes of people from seven diverse Jewish populations," according to Forward magazine. "They then compared the genetic data with DNA from 15 sub-Saharan African populations." from above article
the Ten Tribes traversed the Caucasus mountains into Europe and Asia.
Jesus was white and He didn't look like today's so-called Jews either.
Sorry if that upsets your racist ideology.
Black Paul is mistaken for an "Egyptian" and declares he himself to be a "Jew." (Acts 21:37-39, 22: 2,3)
Biblical Jews were Black African people who were ruthlessly persecuted by the white man (Romans). Jerusalem was overthrown, the Temple was destroyed and the Black Hebrews were scattered.
Seeking to escape destruction, millions of original Black Biblical Jews fled into AFRICA! Centuries later, their descendants were captured and sold into slavery in the Americas!
Please give your references. Snowball7. How do you know that Jesus was white? Have you seen Him in person? Why is it racist to present the view that Jesus had African ancestry too? We know that many Jews and Europeans have African ancestry. Does this upset you? If it does, why? I am not asking you out of hate or because you may feel that I am a racist. I am asking as a sister in Christ. God bless.
