1 | "What did Jesus look like?" | Ex 20:4 | stjones | 56980 | ||
Hi, V; A simple, direct answer is that nobody knows what Jesus looked like. There are no contemporanious images of Socrates either, for example. But you have piqued my curiosity. I know that teens can be obsessive about appearance, but I can't imagine why they would insist on knowing what anyone who lived 2000 years ago looked like. Why do they want to know? Peace and grace Steve aka Indiana Jones |

2 | "What did Jesus look like?" | Ex 20:4 | Vannessa | 57078 | ||
Steve that's such a good question, sorry to be so late responding. I think they only want to place some kind of physical value with the idea of Jesus. Perhaps as they judge their own appearance so critically, they want to be able to judge Jesus' as well. Plus they may want to place Jesus with some kind ethnic features so they can stereotype Him. Teens tend to place everyone into a specific category of box, if you will. It makes it easier to judge them that way. I suppose as others have suggested that is why Jesus was somewhat nondescript except for being Jewish. Thank you for the question, very interesting, V |
