In Revelation 1:11-16 Jesus is described (verse 14 says "white as wool"). However, these descriptions are symbolic to power, purity, glory, and judgment, not race or nationality. WalkingTalkingBible |

Although it's not specifically stated as much, I think almost everyone agrees this passage is describing Christ. Isaiah 53:1 Who has believed our message and to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed? 2 He grew up before him like a tender shoot, and like a root out of dry ground. He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him. 3 He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, and familiar with suffering. Like one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not. 4 Surely he took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows, yet we considered him stricken by God, smitten by him, and afflicted. 5 But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed. 6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all. Apparently Jesus' appearance was about average according to verse 2. I don't know for certain but I don't think you find any specific description of Christ, the kind you're looking for in the OT. Just me personally, I'm thinking that's a good thing. If his appearance were described somewhere accurately in the Bible, then those physcial characteristics would turn into items of worship for some folks and might even cause fights between parents, etc. God bless. --Rowdy |
