Jesus was a Jew. His mother was Jewish. He was born in a Jewish town, circumcised according to Jewish law, worshiped in a Jewish synagogue, and read the Jewish Bible as was customary. Has the Jewishness of Jesus been forgotten? Societies have depicted Jesus and most other biblical figures as their own ethnicity in their art. I understand this from the point of view that Jesus is God and everything is God. Fine, but where in all of this can the real Jesus be found. Does it even matter? I believe the message is much more important than the race of the messenger.
