Jesus was not white, he was brown. I have no idea why in every picture he is portrayed as a white man when he defiinitley was brown! He was born in Jerusalem there is no way he could be white, he would have to be born somewhere else, and even then he would be tanned. According to history he has to be brown!
Another Comment: I have seen similar comments as to the skin tone of Jesus. Have any of you seen Jews? Some are brown, some have white skin. Yes some are browned by the sun.
-That's because they're ethnically different Jewish people. European Ashkenazi Jewish people are White like Europeans, and there're Ethiopian Jewish people, Sephardic Jewish people, etc. Jewish people have evolved different appearances as they dispersed all over the word since they were forced out of Israel. But Jesus was before the take-over of Israel and back then there weren't any "white" Middle Eastern. They were "Caucasian" but not "white skinned".
I don't know, but I am sure he is white like the jewish people and he is jewish aswell and on his pictures he looks white.
watch the life of brian, he's in that, i think he was slightly tanned. Look at the rest of the Middle East, and they will be of a similar colour (color you being an american).
Brown/tan
yes he does
The donkey Jesus rode was lightgrey :)

The Bible says Jesus was born in Bethlehem, a part of Israel from Biblical times, and that he was not of outstanding appearance. So most likely Jesus had the dark brown eyes of most native Mediterranean people.
Yes, Jesus loves all his creations for the exception of Rihanna.
I sure hope not. Nobody knows what Jesus looked like now, but we picture him with longish brown hair and a beard.
Jesus was neither colour, but the colour of a Jew, which is generally light brown.

if we would see the background of his place, perhaps we could see that jesus is brown because of high temperature at his time
A: We not only do not have pictures of Jesus, we do not even know what he looked like. We can say that as a Jew, he would no doubt have dark-skinned and dark brown or black hair, but when Europeans started to paint Jesus they gave him Caucasian features, with fair skin and light brown hair like themselves.
