I have a full beard and with a pair of electric clippers, I can't come close to having my beard looking at good and trim as Jesus in the picture. I wonder how Jewish barbers did it or perhaps his beard was more scruffy than is shown. Does Jesus even look Jewish? He looks like a 30-year-old man from Texas, I wonder why the Borg can't get anything right. So Jesus, who is the head of the congregation can have a beard, but those who follow him can't.
How did Jesus keep his beard looking so neat?

Would like to be a fly on wall when that happens

There's a scripture that implies that the ones supporting his work financially were mainly widowers, the "women who minstered to him". I imagine these women joined him because saw a much more open movement to the women than the so jewish religious society. Poor them, didn't see the Apostle Paul comming...
