Revelation 1:14 is specifically referring to how He'll look when He returns. Not how He looked here on Earth. Song of Solomon 5:10 and Lamentations 4:7 both clearly explain the Israelites were White. If He had "hair white like wool" and "eyes bright like flame" 24/7 in His life on Earth, He would've been treated much differently.

Yeah, Revelations Christ is Transfiguration Christ, had the Jews seen him like that, theyd probably not have even entertained thoughts of killing Him. He likely looked like the average (actual) Semite of the time, and I have a hunch that would have been pretty white looking.
Look into the visions of Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich, she describes the young Christ as blonde haired,(and also describes Abraham as blonde and blue eyed with a tan)
Given that Song of Solomon 5:10 and Lamentations 4:7 very clearly states the Israelites were White, Jesus was absolutely White as well. As you've stated, there are even ancient mosaics predating 200 AD showing depictions of King David, Jesus and His Apostles all with White skin, blonde hair, blue eyes, and brown hair.

You're the one putting words in the mouth of God, and I'm rebuking your sin for it. I didn't claim Jesus had brown hair/brown eyed either, but you did imply He had "hair white like wool" and "eyes bright like flame" 24/7 on His life on Earth.

There’s multiple accounts of his appearance: light hair and bright (blue/gray) eyes. None of them are brown hair/brown eyed.
