Can someone point me to the scripture where Jesus’ appearance is described? As far as I know we do not know what Jesus looked like.

“Can someone point me to the scripture where Jesus’ appearance is described? As far as I know we do not know what Jesus looked like.”

There are two (sort of places) that I know of. One is in Isaiah, where we are told:

“For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.” chapter 53 verse 2

Then when he is resurrected and in his glorified body, he is described in Revelation:

“And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle. His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters. And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.” (chapter 1, verses 13-16)
