This article investigates Jesus’ identity by setting aside "Jewish" as a racial marker, analyzing his 1st-century context and modern classification through historical, anthropological, and genetic lenses. From Judea under Roman rule, Jesus’ Levantine roots trace to Canaanite-related groups, with olive skin and dark features typical of the region. Ethnically Semitic, he spoke Aramaic and lacked a modern nationality. Today, his DNA aligns with Levantine peoples like Palestinians or Syrians, fitting a Middle Eastern category. Culturally, he embodied a rural Levantine lifestyle. The analysis concludes he was a 1st-century Levantine man, identified today as Middle Eastern, tied to the Israel-Palestine region. #JesusIdentity #ReconstructingJesusIdentity #HistoricalJesus #JesusRoots #JesusAncestry
