Christ Appearance » His personal appearance figuratively described
I saw until thrones were placed, and the Ancient of Days took his seat. His clothing was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool. His throne was fiery flames, and its wheels burning fire.
You are the most excellent of the sons of men. Grace has anointed your lips, therefore God has blessed you forever.
His mouth is sweetness; yes, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, daughters of Jerusalem.
Just as many were astonished at you (his appearance was marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men),
For he grew up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of dry ground. He has no form nor comeliness. When we see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his garments became as white as the light.
His head and his hair were white as white wool, like snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire.
And the one who sat there looked like a jasper stone and a sardius. There was a rainbow around the throne, like an emerald to look at.
