Hi am just wondering something on how Jesus looked, I get the area were he comes from and others would have brown skin and dark hair and eyes but that is both parents being middle eastern (Jesus had only one being Mary) no one is to know how God looks and given he is the father using the Holy Spirit to impregnate her with HIS son we are really not to know.... just a thought!

With reference to S Michael Houdmanns answer as to whether Jesus had long hair he mentioned inter alia that Jesus’ skin colour was was probably light brown to dark. He was a descendant of David who was described in 1 Sam 17:42 as ruddy and fair!
