Minsunderstanding cleared up, I think Jim. Basically, I think it's better to read the Gospels in the language we speak rather than in Aramaic, which doesn't mean the Aramaic version isn't the basic one. And the same thinking applies to pictures.

Nothing wrong with a blue eyes blond Jesus as a way of helping Swedes recognise Jesus as someone whoi belongs in Sweden - but everything wrong when that image gets presented to black Africans with the message that Jesus isn't like them, but is like the settlers who've been pushing them around.

And nothing wrong with trying to get an image of him that reflects how he would have been, back in First Century Palestine, especially since that can be a way of reminding people that being any kind of a Christian isn't compatible with being a racist or an anti-semite.
