Jorkeam is a person mentioned in 1 Chronicles in the genealogies of the tribe of Judah. He is listed as the son (or descendant) of Raham, who was the son of Shema. Jorkeam is primarily known through his place in the genealogy and has no other actions described in the Bible.
Jorkeam belongs to the extended lineage of Caleb (Caleb's son Mesha was the father of Ziph, and through several generations comes Jorkeam), which places him in an important branch of the tribe of Judah.
3The sons of Judah: Er, Onan, and Shelah. These three were born to him by Bath-shua the Canaanite. Er, Judah's firstborn, was evil in the LORD's sight, and the LORD put him to death.
