Jorim
Who he was
Jorim is mentioned in Luke 3:29 as one of the ancestors of Jesus Christ. He is listed in the genealogy of Jesus recorded by Luke, which traces Jesus' lineage back through his mother Mary's family line. In this genealogy, Jorim is identified as the son of Matthat and the father of Eliezer. The genealogy covers a period of several centuries, from Jesus back to Adam, but no specific information is provided about Jorim's life or the time period in which he lived. His inclusion in the genealogy helps to establish Jesus' connection to the royal line of David and the fulfillment of messianic prophecies.
