Joaquin Phoenix as Jesus. Look at this white washed bs :mjpls:

For the record, early Christian sources considered Jesus to have been a 4’6” dark skinned hunchback with a unibrow. Which is corroborated by the gospels when Jesus says people will taunt him by saying “physician heal yourself” and the whole passion of the Christ, making him drag a heavy crucifix, mocking the Jews by calling them their king, all makes a lot more sense if Jesus was actually deformed in some way.

But let Hollywood tell it, and he’s a damn sex symbol

Historical revisionism

yea the historian josephus described him just like what u said above. The funny thing is that josephus is quoted by alot of pastors and such within the church but they conveniently overlook this even the bible in Isaiah it says he would not have anything about him that we will want to desire in him, no beauty etcc..

but yea hollywood is , they did the same thing with the Egyptians and they will keep doing it sadly alot folks dont read and are educated by pop culture

Jesus to have been a 4’6” dark skinned hunchback with a unibrow

For all we know, Jesus was 4' 6" hunchbacked dwarf with a unibrow.

That's almost certainly how the Early Church viewed Jesus.

"Justin Martyr, Tertullian, and Ambrose actually considered lack of physical attractiveness in Jesus as fulfilling the Messianic prophecy "Suffering Servant" narrative of Isaiah 53"
"Both Hierosolymitanus and John of Damascus claim that "the Jew Josephus" described Jesus as having had connate eyebrows and crooked."
"Emperor Theophilus, Jesus's height is described as three cubits (four feet six), which was also the opinion of Ephrem Syrus (320–379 AD), "God took human form and appeared in the form of three human ells (cubits); he came down to us small of stature."
"Jesus's prediction that he would be taunted "Physician, heal yourself" may suggest that Jesus was indeed physically deformed ('crooked' or hunch-backed) as claimed in the early Christian texts listed above."

Other sources from around 200AD describe Jesus as "ugly and small."

I think that makes the Passion of the Christ narrative far more emotional. Because with today's viewing, where jesus is some muscular anglo-saxon dude, it's more just a labor. But imagining a 4'6" hunchback being forced to carry his crucifix is a lot more than a 1st century David Beckham. The Church really is lead by the devil and has completely warped the narrative to suit their own evil purposes.

That's one of the corniest trailers I've seen. Religious flicks always on some dumb shyt.

For some reason people love Joaquin Phoenix...they'll eat this thrash up.

As if there wasnt 50 versions of the same jesus movie done before

Passion Of The Christ has a white Jesus. So did Last Temptation Of Christ, King Of Kings and pretty much every movie, tv show and documentary pertaining to him.

Some people find comfort in a god who looks like them. It’s why I never got most religions.

 

[Take It In Blood]

Jesus was only 4'6?

No wonder he died a virgin

Breh was the Holy Kent
