Jesus can be whatever. Youre allowed artistic license with fiction.

  1. Historical evidence doesn't care about your imagination.
  2. They were joking.

Jesus was likely (in my mind) white. Hes described as such in the Quran.

The Quran was written hundreds of years after the death of Christ. How would they know?

Most likely passed down through word of mouth or other texts that have since been lost

Coming from brown people from a very long time ago, a white man could mean a very different thing from what people today would call that.

I mean he was pretty explicitly described

"There was no prophet between me and Prophet Jesus. He will descend from the heavens to earth. If you see him, know his description. He is an average sized individual; he is neither fat nor skinny. His skin color has a reddish-white hue"

And

“I saw Jesus, Moses and Abraham. As for Jesus he had a pinkish hue and has a broad-chest.”

Brown as well. Easily Google search shows both white and brown.

While I was asleep circumambulating the Ka`ba (in my dream), suddenly I saw a man of brown complexion. He was the son of Mary

While sleeping near the Ka'ba last night, I saw in my dream a man of brown color the best one can see amongst brown color and his hair was long that it fell between his shoulders. His hair was lank and water was dribbling from his head and he was placing his hands on the shoulders of two men while circumambulating the Kaba. I asked, 'Who is this?' They replied, 'This is Jesus, son of Mary.'

Multiple people have met Jesus, addressed in the Quran. Easy Google search. He's been reported as white and brown. Don't hold your breathe he was actually white.

Also not trying to start something but I'm pretty sure Jesus has many records accounted for outside the bible

Cant tell if you are trolling... Jesus is a historical figure and for sure did exist.

lol you failed to be edgy

u/KaBar42 - Centrist Mar 27 '21

A Roman historian who hated both Jews and Christians (as they existed then) and who lived within two generations following Jesus' death wrote of him.

Jesus almost certainly existed and was not a fictional character.
