In the beginning God created the Heavens and the Earth. And He went on
to create man in his image. It is not specific in the bible about what
color their skin was. It just says in His image which means that they
looked like people, not elephants, horses or rabbits. No where in the
bible does it specify a particular skin color for Adam and Eve, God, or
Jesus.
Note that if they were portrayed by an Italian painter that they were
usually given brown eyes, dark hair and olive skin and if they were
portrayed by an English painter they were generally painted with blonde
hair, blue eyes and ivory skin. The interpretations come from the ideas
of men. Nobody really knew unless they met them personally! Am I not
right?
