See number 77. I would have pinged you if I’d read your comment first.

I remember reading that Jesus was a short misshapen Jewish guy. I’ve always known he wasn’t the long haired Anglo Saxon of the paintings, but I like knowing he wasn’t some movie star hunk.

We either like his words or we like his handsomeness.

No contest. It’s his message that counts.

that's just a guess, too.

Nobody saw Him so nobody knows for sure.

The pharisees certainly never criticized his looks, and I don't doubt that if He was lacking in that area, or His stature, they would have not failed to mention it.
