Christ Appearance » His personal appearance figuratively described
I beheld until thrones were placed, and an Elder of great age did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool: his throne a flame of fire, his wheels burning fire.
Thou art fairer than the sons of men, grace is poured into thy lips; therefore God has blessed thee for ever.
His mouth is most sweet; he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O virgins of Jerusalem.
As many rejected thee, in such manner was his likeness and his beauty, disfigured from the sons of men:
With all this he shall grow up before him as a tender sprout and as a root out of a dry ground. There is no outward appearance in him, nor beauty. We shall see him, yet nothing attractive about him that we should desire him.
and [he] was transfigured before them, and his face shined as the sun, and his raiment was as white as the light.
His head and his hairs were white like white wool, as the snow, and his eyes were as a flame of fire
And he that was seated was like a jasper and a sardine stone to look upon; and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald.

Thine arrows, by which the peoples fall under thee, penetrate the heart of the enemies of the king. Thy throne, O God, is eternal and for ever, the rod of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness; therefore God, thy God, has anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. All thy garments smell of myrrh and aloes and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, by which they have made thee glad. Kings' daughters were among thy honourable women; the queen stands at thy right hand with a crown of gold from Ophir. Hearken, O daughter, and consider and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father's house; so shall the king greatly desire thy beauty; and bow before him, for he is thy Lord. And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift; even the rich among the people shall intreat thy favour. The king's daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of wrought gold. She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework; the virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee. With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought; they shall enter into the king's palace. Instead of thy fathers shall be thy sons, whom thou shalt make princes in all the earth. I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations; therefore shall the people praise thee eternally and for ever.
