How tall was Jesus?
Nobody knows for sure. The Gospels never describe what Jesus looked like, including His height. The best estimate comes from the remains of Jewish men who lived in Judea and Galilee in the first century, who averaged around 5 feet 5 inches. That would make Him an ordinary height for His time.
Where the 5 foot 5 comes from
Archaeologists have measured skeletons from first-century burial sites around Jerusalem. Men there averaged about 166 centimeters, or 5 feet 5. That's an average for the people around Him, not a measurement of Jesus.
What scripture does say
Isaiah 53:2, which many Christians read as a prophecy about Jesus, says He would have “no form nor comeliness” that would make people want Him. Many readers take that to mean nothing about His looks stood out.
Why the paintings disagree
Most of the paintings people know were made in Europe more than a thousand years later. Painters tended to draw Him looking like the people around them.
Questions
Does the Bible say how tall Jesus was?
No. No verse gives His height or describes His face.
Was Jesus tall for His time?
There's no evidence either way. At around 5 feet 5 He'd have been average, and the Gospels never mention Him standing out in a crowd.
