The New Testament makes no mention of Jesus' skin colour. (Wrong: Revelation 1:14-15 KJV)

However it is extremely unlikely that he would have been the European white depicted in European art.

It is most commonly argued that Jesus was probably of Middle Eastern descent because of the geographic location of the events described in the New Testament Gospels and the genealogy scribed to him. For this reason, he has would have been an olive-skinned individual typical of the Levant region.

Further assuming Jesus to be a Galilean Semite a study concluded by the BBC in conjunction with Mark Goodacre also proposed his skin would have been "olive-coloured"and "swarthy.

A study conducted by Richard Neave, a medical artist from the Unit of Art in Medicine at the University of Manchester analysed three 1st century skulls Jewish skulls from Israel and the constructed faces suggested that Jesus would have had a broad face and large nose, and differed significantly from the traditional depictions of Jesus in renaissance art.
