First of all, you'll have to show that the early Spartans had brown skin. Secondly, so maybe it was; what of it?

Thirdly, just as today, Israelites (Hebrews) came in differing skin-tones, heights, and body-types. Our tradition is that the twelve sons of Jacob (the 12 Tribes) were not completely similar to each other in appearance, though none of them was really dark-skinned (Rashi commentary on Genesis 12:11).

Abraham and Sarah came from southern Iraq and their wider family from northern Iraq. Since DNA tests have shown that Jews intermarried infrequently throughout history, Abraham and his Israelite descendants probably looked like Jews today.

Probably; both peoples lived in more or less the same climate and so had a swarthy complexion.
