It's burned into my mind now that this is what Jesus looked like.
>>18410595That was never meant to depict Jesus specifically, it was meant to depict an average 1st Century Levantine man. Jesus himself probably didn't look quite like that, that's not to say he wasn't a 1st century Levantine man himself, just that if you're going to run a doomsday cult and gather a non-negligible amount of followers and grab the attention of the local government then you probably had at least some level of good looks and charisma to back you up
>>18410595Was the retarded caveman gaze really neccessary for the depiction?
>>18410600he just looks exhausted, like someone who had to labor away in a desert for hours, I'd probably have the same look on my face if I had to live and work in a 1st century shithole desert without AC
>>18410595I like this one better
>>18410607Damn Jesus getting real freaky
>>18410595I haven't really seen any good reason to doubt the authenticity of the traditional depiction found in Holy icons. It seems likely there was at least some connection to original eyewitnesses passed down orally or in materials that are now lost.
>>18410599>>18410615Luke 4:30>But he walked right through the crowd and went on his way.Implies pretty heavily Jesus wasn't attractive in the slightest.
>>18410595Jesus Christ wasn't white but his depictions in Catholic at still look the best.
>>18410595Ok? Does it matter what He looked like?
>>18410696>>18410615>>18410595>>18410599Herod Archelaus forced the widow of his brother Alexander, Glaphyra, to remarry him in order to bolster his own claim to Hasmonean succession. The problem was that she had already ceremonially married Juba II at the time in order for him to restore Israel by acting as the male authority of the Ptolemaic family. In some sense reenacting the marriage between Joseph and Asenath. (Juba II's real wife was always Cleopatra Selene II)Glaphyra was killed by Archelaus' faction only two days after spilling the beans on not actually being in a voluntary marriage with Herod Archelaus. Pantera was also the bodyguard of Juba II, whom married Magdalenes mother. And since Jesus lived with Magdalene and her uncle Joseph the tradesman as a cover, the Jews slandered Jesus by claiming that he was the son of a whore who slept with a roman soldier named Pantera.
>>18410595>Jesus was contaminated with the dark taint of hell-spawned demonsYour heresy is not consistent with the Biblical description.
