After 2000 years, the real face of Jesus has been FINALLY revealed

Part 2 of 2

The team X-rayed three Semite skulls–found earlier by Israeli archaeologists–from the same time period, and then using computerised tomography, the skulls were visually “sliced,” revealing details of their structure.

After programs calculated muscle and skin density, the experts built a digital 3D reconstruction of a face, followed by a cast of the skull, which was layered with clay to match the thickness of facial tissues previously determined by the program.

Features like the eyes, lips and nose were then added, following the predicted shape of the skulls.

What the skull analysis couldn’t do was reveal his eye color or hair style.

Further studying first century artwork from archaeological sites, from before the Bible was written, the team then theorized that Jesus had dark eyes and keeping with Jewish traditions at the time, he also likely had a beard.

Taking a clue from the bible to determine his hair style, the experts figured the Son of God wore his hair short, with tight curls, contrary to common depictions.

And, written by Paul in the bible is a passage that reads, “If a man has long hair, it is a disgrace to him,” allowing the team to conclude that Jesus had shorter hair.

This depiction is very different from the long-haired image seen in the Shroud of Turin, surfaced in 1354, that some believe bears the image of Christ when he was wrapped in a cloth after his death on the cross.

Following the same steps to discover his possible height and weight, the team used skeletal remains of Semite men to determine the average build of a Jewish man in Galilee.

From this, they found that Jesus was a smaller man, likely about 5-foot-1, weighing around 110lbs.

And, because he mostly worked outside as a carpenter until he was 30, experts also hypothesize that he was tanned and had larger muscles than traditional Western arts suggests.

Replying to the story posted on Facebook, people commented with a resounding, “Amen!”

Interestingly, the new depictions are closer to the “Prince of Peace,” that was painted by Akiane Kramarik when she was only eight. Akiane said she saw the image of Jesus in her dreams and now the painting is priceless and known internationally.

Without question, the recent findings may upset some devout followers, specifically those who look for his popular image in food.

“When I put my fork down it moved a little bit of sauce around the eyes. I didn’t think anything of it, but that actually turned it into Jesus,” said Jeff Jordyn, 52, who in 2022 was eating some chicken tikka masala when suddenly he saw the face of Christ in his curry. Comparing the image in the curry to how Christ is famously portrayed in historical illustrations, Jordyn added, “This is the only time I’ve had someone appear in my food. I’m not real big on divine intervention.”

Perhaps now people will start looking for a Jesus with different physical characteristics.

Science and technology offers incredible insights into our past and it’s interesting to see what the experts did in recreating an image of Jesus.
