Notice how Jesus looks Italian in all the paintings? I always picture him as a young Billy Crystal.

That’s interesting you said that because that’s what my wife says too!

For me personally, I picture someone that looks kind of like Obi Won Kenobi in the Phantom Menace Star Wars movie and when my Jesus talks, he has an English accent. (I have no English blood in me.)

He certainly does NOT look like a Roman in any of the pictures, if that’s your insinuation. My wife’s family is from Northern Italy. She’s blonde, blue-eyed, round-faced, and has a short nose.

They look Italian because the models De Vinci used were Italian. That’s why I laugh at people who use the painting of The Last Supper to prove Mary Magdalen was there. De Vinci could have had Comicus holding the brass platter behind Jesus like Mel Brooks did and they’d still try to debunk Jesus based on a painting by a guy who wasn’t there.
