Was Jesus Christ a Black man?

Update:

A growing comment made by social engineers that want more diversity. Of course, it's not true. There are various shades of "White". From Sephardic to blond, blue eyes. There is no biological way to separate a Jew, Arab from Europeans. Hitler believed Jews to be Asiatic. But, his own doctors proved that to be false. The European Royal families have traced their decent back to King David. Christ was the Second Adam. Adam means "Red". So, Christ had a fair skin, reddish & red hair, blue eyes.

    Why do you not read the bible then?!

    It says Mary, Joseph and Jesus were Jews and the Jewish race is classified as white. There was no such thing as interracial marriage in those days and a Jew who stays out of the sun is whiter than an American or a European. Jesus was also said to be of direct descent from King David!

    There is no place for racism in religion!

    1.  There is NO "Jewish" race; not even in ancient Israel.

    2.  NOBODY knows how JC looked - and some people question whether he even existed.

    He certainly wasn't Irish or German.  According to scripture, he was a rather unremarkable-looking Jew, so he probably looked like this:

    This does not violate Yahoo rules, in anyway. If you do, falsely, Yahoo will remove your privilege.

    Mary, her ancestors were Jewish, in the line of the Hebrews. So Jesus would probably have had a complexion and features common to Jews. 

     about Jesus’ complexion and features? They were likely Semitic. He would have inherited these features from his mother, Mary, who was Jewish.

    No way to know for sure since this was not an important enough topic to be covered in Scripture.

    Possibly but more likely an Arab looking guy.

    Nope, he was a Semitic Jew!
