According to both the New and Old Testament Bible Jesus was without beauty, or just plain ordinary. He would have been of average, ordinary, Jewish appearance. He was not necessarily attractive or handsome in any human way. He probably looked like a very ordinary Jewish man. In other words, as far as appearance goes, heads would not turn to look at Him for His beauty. He would not stand out in the crowd. Rather, it was His spiritual charisma, compassion, wisdom, miracles, selflessness and radical statements that drew people to Him.
A relevant and noteworthy verse in the Old Testament Bible is found in Isaiah 53:2:
“…And when we see Him, There is no beauty that we should desire Him” (NKJV).
The New Testament portrays Jesus’s compassion and love for mankind. His eyes probably reflected that love. His eyes were probably compelling and would have drawn people to Him.
