Jews are not necessarily white. Jewish communities flourished for centuries all over the world, so Jews can belong to any ethnicity. A large community of Ethiopian Jews now resides in Israel, there are Jews from India (some called Bnei Menashe) and Middle Eastern Jews.

In addition, converts to Judaism come from many different ethnic groups. The Abayudaya Jews of Uganda converted to Judaism en masse in 1919. A congregation in San Miguel includes many Mexican converts to Judaism.

Judaism is a religion made up of people from many ethnic backgrounds, and is accepting of all of them.

Was Jesus brown?

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".
