Sorry Sab.....
Considering no one really knows what Jesus looked like, I find it funny everyone seems to think he's some long haired hippy.
Reminds me of the '60s era bumper sticker:
JESUS IS COMING
and boy is he POed.
Actually a Roman historian did describe his physical appearance.
That reminds me of a story about a family going to Easter services once and they passed a hitch hiking hippy and their little girl wanted to know why they didn't stop for Jesus, so the dad turned around and went back a gave the hippy a ride.
Pontius Pilate was hardly a Roman historian, but a description exists.Reminds me of the '60s era bumper sticker:

Now, that would be something to read. I haven't found it anywhere but a famous Roman historian, Cornelius Tacitus ,describes Christianity as a pernicious superstition. Perhaps, the same historian? Don't know.
One day I observed in the midst of a group of people a young man who was leaning against a tree, calmly addressing the multitude. I was told it was Jesus. This I could easily have suspected so great was the difference between Him and those who were listening to Him. His golden colored hair and beard gave to his appearance a celestial aspect. He appeared to be about 30 years of age. Never have I seen a sweeter or more serene countenance. What a contrast between Him and His bearers with their black beards and tawny complexions!
