jews/hebrews/israelies of 500 bc. (And Jesus for sure wouldn't look like most paintings we see of him.)

Keenan Pili looks a lot like how I imagine Nephi looked.

He closely resembles the Nephi in old BoM paintings

You think Nephi looked like a 250 pound Samoan linebacker? Why didn't he handle

Lived with a Tongan family in one area on my mission. The grandpa would've said

Actually, pretty sure Laman was kinda skinny with a whiny voice and Lemuel was

It was two on one, and Nephi was the youngest of the three.

His coconut butt hadn't kicked in yet, maybe?

1 Ne 2:16 “Large in stature” when he was “Exceedingly young”. Sounds like the kind of guy that gets recruited in Jr.

BYU fans are definitely "a peculiar people", and it IS a compliment.

There's no way to really know that about Jesus

The less plausible position is that Jesus looked like a white european guy given

Undefeated

Kinda depends on what his Father looked like. Who knows…

True, but I bet he blended in quite well and looked just like everyone else

Joseph also probably looked like what I was saying.

Since we are on this tangent, I think "The Chosen" actor nailed the Jesus look

I was going to bring that up. He's Closer -imo. I give the show credit for that.

Nephi literally is always telling the reader how big and strong he is... its no

I would like to know where Nephi was getting 3500-4000 calories a day and all
