Firstclass newsline Special:A team of archeologists from the
University of Tel Aviv have uncovered a collection of ancient scrolls
in the West Bank region, near the Qumran Caves, where the Dead Sea
Scrolls were originally uncovered in 1947, and which promise to shed a
new light on the life and physical appearance of Jesus Christ.
The newly found documents which are believed to have been written by a
small Jewish sectarian group, called the Essenes, retraces different
elements of the Old Testament and New Testament similar to the Dead
Sea Scrolls, but scholars have turned their attention to a peculiar
fragment which describes the birth of the Christ figure in a new
light.
The manuscripts that have been dated between 408 BCE to 318 CE
describe the son of Mary as of a "darker color" of skin than her
parents, a revealing information admits professor Hans Schummer.

Hans Schummer of the University of Tel Aviv
"It is quite revealing that the unknown author of the document notes
with a certain sense of surprise that the infant's skin tone is darker
in color than his mother and father.
"The infant was the color of the night" reads a part of the fragment
of the scripture, "In the dark of the night, nothing could be seen of
the infant except the white of his eyes" reads another excerpt.
Hamshet, half-brother of Joseph
There is also the mention of a peculiar character named Hamshet, which
is described as the half-brother of Joseph. Hamshet is described as
"untrustworthy" and "ill-fated", denoted as suspicious and reviled by
his brother Joseph who "despises his wicked manners" and "lack of
morals", but most interestingly, accordingly to archeologist Natanya
Jeborah of the University of Tel Aviv, Hamshet and the infant are
described by a shepherd as sharing "the same color of skin", a remark
Joseph does not take lightly.
"In this account of the nativity of Christ, this is the first known
description of Hamshet, the alleged half-brother of Joseph, with whom
Joseph seems to have much contempt for some unexplained reason" she
explains. "Is it possible Hamshet was in fact the true father of
Jesus? Although some elements may lead us to think so, without further
proof we are left only with a plausible conjecture" she adds.
The infant Jesus was "black as the night" reveal the new scrolls,
leading experts to believe Jesus was in fact of a "darker skin tone"
and allegedly of African descent
Why is Hamshet, half-brother of Joseph, dark skinned?
Some apocryphal texts insist the father of Joseph had two wives, but
also a servant of African origin named Melcha. Although the names of
Joseph's siblings are not mentioned, he allegedly had 4 sisters and 5
brothers. It is also said that a child was born of the union of Jacob
and his servant after his second wife had died. "This could explain
why Hamshet is described as of a darker tone of skin than his
half-brother Joseph" believes Hebrew scholar Moshe Zuckenschtein. "The
use of the Hebrew adjective "כושי" Cushite or Cushi, translated to
Latin asAethiops, to describe Hamshet also confirms that he is of
darker skin than the average Israelite of the time" he acknowledges.
"That his skin tone is said to be the same as that of the infant Jesus
is very intriguing" he concedes.
Further research of the caves led by the University of Tel Aviv in
the vicinity of the ancient settlement atKhirbet Qumranin the West
Bank could reveal new promising discoveries believe scholars, although
the two-year excavation of the caves, which are located about 2
kilometers inland from the northwest shore of the Dead Sea, are under
constant threat by armed conflicts in the region.
