What is the logic for him being white anyway, especially when a good chunk of the scholarly texts refer to him as a Galilean Israelite? And yes, there weren't a whole lot of Northern Europeans in the Levant in the first century CE.
Where is the source though. Just saying "Probably" Doesn't count. Plus ,the Israelites were from many different tribes, you can't simply lump every single judean as one
Considering the Bible says precisely squat about what he looks like, the best we can do is infer from the community he's established as living in.
So how do we get him being white from that?
