How could anyone see that as anything but humiliation and blasphemy?
Palestinians have a higher percent ancestry from Jacob / Israel than Ashkenazi and Sephardic Jew impersonaters
Jesus would have looked more like a Palestinian than an Ashkenazi
According to Isaiah 53:2 the suffereing servant Messiah was not handsome
Contemporary English Version
Like a young plant or a root that sprouts in dry ground, the servant grew up obeying the LORD. He wasn't some handsome king. Nothing about the way he looked made him attractive to us.
@shortstories @rasterman @MeBigbrain that's a really weird translation. I've always read it as though Jesus just looked like everyone else, as in there wasn't any telltale sign that He was the Christ just based on His physical appearance alone. He just looked like a normal guy. Doesn't necessarily mean He was ugly.
>Caring about what broads think
Those same broads would drop their daisy dukes to even the ugliest sunavagun if he had a fat wallet or numerous warrants and 7 drug possession charges
@shortstories @rasterman @MeBigbrain yeah but i'm pretty sure Isaiah wasn't a woman
@beardalaxy @Rasterman @MeBigbrain
What if Isaiah was saying to women who hear his message that when you reject 80% of men without a criminal record but go for violent drug dealing lazy men with a criminal record it is like you are rejecting Jesus & crucifying him all over again trampling his blood underfoot treating it as a unholy thing & treating his grace with contempt until there is no forgiveness for you because you rejected the free gift of a forgiving man & choose a jerk instead
@kf01 @Rasterman @beardalaxy @MeBigbrain
Jesus was made ugly that I might become handsome
By the psychological wounds they tried to inflict on him I may be healed
@beardalaxy @Rasterman @MeBigbrain
He was not handsome that could mean ugly or normal looking
Remember women classify 80% of men as not handsome
Normal looking men are not handsome according to women
