It'd be pretty hard to pluck a few short hairs he hadn't shaved.

Ever see the video "The Greatest Story Ever Told" with the actor Max Von Sydow playing Jesus?
This was the closest I have seen too what Jesus may have looked or even acted like.

He had short hair, and a short beard.

To explain this away, some will say that Jesus grew a beard while waiting for stand before Pilate.

It's very hard to pluck a shadow beard!

The drama was The Messiah and it was absolutely WONDERFUL!

I throughly enjoyed it and I usually don't enjoy these type things, but it was put together so well and of course we heard "The Alabaster Box" - great song!

Great job Buffy and all! BTW, I think your hubby should keep his beard - he looks great!!!!

I was so glad you came! We are expecting a big crowd tonight. I think your dad and my husband look pretty good! My hubbys says the beard is coming off Monday!

He quoted scripture like a champ and talked in a normal voice and was even funny at times.

The funniest part of the drama was there were some southern accents for sure.....it was great though!

My husband is definitely from Southern Jerusalem!

I thought it made it all the more real - because the disciples were just real men......(well except for a couple of those little short ones - lol)!!!!

Daddy said he was "playing" mean......he's just not got it in him to be mean.
