LETTER TO TIBERIUS CAESAR FROM PONTIUS PILATE

(The original of this letter is in the library of Rome. An authenticated copy is in the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C.)

A young man appeared in Galilee preaching with humble unction, a new law in the Name of the God that had sent Him. At first I was apprehensive that His design was to stir up the people against the Romans, but my fears were soon dispelled. Jesus of Nazareth spoke rather as a friend of the Romans than of the Jews. One day, I observed in the midst of a group of people a young man who was leaning against a tree, calmly addressing the multitude. I was told that his name was Jesus. This I could easily have suspected, so great was the difference between Him and those who were listening to Him. His golden coloured hair and His beard gave to His appearance a celestial aspect. He appeared to be about thirty years of age. Never have I seen a sweeter or more serene countenance. What a contrast between Him and His hearers with their black beards and tawny complexions. Unwilling to interrupt Him by my presence, I continued my walk but signified to my secretary to join the group and listen. Later, my secretary reported that never had he read in the words of all the philosophers, anything that compared to the teachings of Jesus. He told me that Jesus was neither seditious nor rebellious, so we extended to Him our protection. He was at liberty to act, to speak, to assemble, and to address the people. This unlimited freedom provoked the Jews - not the poor but the rich and powerful.

What was the actual texture and color of Jesus hair and the color of his eyes and skin?

Jesus, who clearly had presence, was a Mediterranean Jew, born in Bethlehem, a part of Israel from biblical times. Even though Jesus is said to be divinely conceived, the Bible says Jesus was not of outstanding appearance. So most likely he shared the coloring and hair texture of indigenous Mediterranean peoples to this day: wavy or very curly thick dark hair, soft dark-brown eyes, long black eyelashes, and dark-bronze to medium-brown skin. In other words, Jesus was the tall, dark, and handsome type.
