The face of Jesus?

Popular Mechanics


This article is from a 2002 Pop Mech. article. It might be old stuff but I just recently stumbled upon it and found it interesting. It shows how scientists applied modern day forensic and computer techniques, and some artistic liberties, to try and recreate the face of what Jesus might have looked like. I'm not going to take it as this is exactly or even close to what he looked could have looked like. Although it would make sense for someone from that region to look like a Middle Eastern person, unlike the pictures we see today of him having white skin, tall, and sporting brown hair. Now I don't know much about Jesus, and whether he is the Son of God is debatable, or whether he had some mutation which made him look like a European, or maybe this God (if it was a virgin birth) wanted his son to have European features. I don't know either, believe what you will.
