ELI5: Why do all pictures of Jesus depict him as a white man, even though he was from Israel?

I've always wondered this. I know it might sound like something George Carlin would say to support his claim that religion is bullshit, but I legit want to know. If you're in some way offended by this question, and just want to blow off steam, please don't comment.

Thanks in advance =)
