    If you really want your mind blown, look at early Church depictions:

    For the first 300 or so years Jesus looked like this:

      The oldest-known depiction of Jesus portrayed him as a donkey:

        to be fair, that was created 200-300 years after he died.

          Still technically the closest to the original we have.

          So Jesus was a donkey! It’s not a big deal, no need to shoot the messenger!

      So a cross between a member of the Beatles or Led Zepplin

      My name is Jesus. I play the drums.

    Was he described as being inside the temple to scare them out, or holding it in the air shaking it like a toy?

    I would argue his cross-section is probably smaller than the temple gate. That’s one more limit

      He rode a donkey so whatever that limit is, right?
