view one of the earliest known images of black Jesus
Why am I seeing this image for the first time TODAY?! This painting is located at the Coptic Museum in Cairo, Egypt and is said to be older than the image of the black Jesus Christ located in the Church of Rome, which is from the 6th century.
And to think, an African American teenager was almost suspended from school THIS YEAR because he dressed up as Jesus for Halloween when it is clear as day that Jesus [and his followers] was BLACK and of AFRICAN ancestry!!
The “race” and/or color of Jesus has been debated for hundreds of years, but can someone explain to me why NOBODY mentions or brings up this painting? Why are black Christian pastors refusing to show members of their congregation this image of Jesus, especially if it is one of the earliest paintings the world has of Jesus?!? Do they even know about this painting’s existence? And why are there no high resolution images of this painting anywhere online? Can someone go to Cairo, take a picture of this painting and upload it online for the world to see?! Smdh…
If blacks knew that God and God’s son were black, would they accept being a slave to a person classified as white? Would blacks ever accept the myth that their skin color makes them INFERIOR? HELL NO!!! Wake the fuck up black people!! We must eradicate global white supremacy (racism)!!!

“…is said to be older than the image of the black Jesus Christ located in the Church of Rome, which is from the 6th century.”
Said to be? By whom? And on what basis?
How old is this painting, and how do you know?
I’ve seen allegations online that this is the “oldest painting of Jesus” but never a date or any sources for that “fact.”
I don’t care what color Jesus was. I’d just like to know the truth about this painting and about which are actually the oldest images of him.
If the date was known, it would have been provided. Due to the false belief that man and civilization began in Europe, it’s extremely important to know that “Jesus” was not white and that in earlier depictions of him, he did not have “white” skin.
The painting IS real. And it IS in the Coptic museum in Cairo. However, it’s estimated to have been done in the 18th century : https://fakehistoryhunter.wordpress.com/2020/06/08/not-the-earliest-known-image-of-jesus/
Thanks for this information. I def don’t think that amateur-looking image on your page from 235 AD is Jesus — it could literally be anyone.
