True, sister. He should maybe remember that what he claims to be his area of expertise is Genesis, not secular genetics.

The word "Gentile" in Greek is "Ethnos". Which is where the word "Ethnic" comes from. I.E. the ethnic peoples of the world. There is no argument from anyone Jesus was a direct descendant of Adam. Adam was of a "Ruddy" complexion and so was Our Lord.

Does it matter if he is white or not?

I've underlined the relevant section and notice how it's made clear that He has a WHITE head (as well as WHITE hair) so whether you think it important or not and whether you'd like Him to be purple or even insects the fact of the matter is settled.

I have a painting of Jesus and he is most definitely white with blond hair and blue eyes.
