Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root יָרָה (yarah), meaning "to throw, cast" and רָם (ram), meaning "high, exalted."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G2496 (Ἰωράμ, Iōram): This Greek entry corresponds to the Hebrew name Joram and is used in the New Testament genealogies, specifically in the Gospel of Matthew, to trace the lineage of Jesus Christ.

Usage: Joram is a proper noun used as a name for several individuals in the Hebrew Bible. It is most notably used for two kings: one of Israel and one of Judah.

Context: • Joram, King of Israel: Joram, also known as Jehoram, was the son of Ahab and Jezebel and the brother of Ahaziah. He reigned as the king of Israel during the 9th century BCE. His reign is noted for the continuation of the idolatrous practices initiated by his parents, although he did remove the sacred pillar of Baal (2 Kings 3:2). Joram formed an alliance with Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, and the king of Edom to fight against Moab (2 Kings 3:4-27). His reign ended when he was wounded in battle against the Arameans, and he was eventually killed by Jehu, who succeeded him as king (2 Kings 9:24).

• Joram, King of Judah: Joram, also known as Jehoram, was the son of Jehoshaphat and reigned as king of Judah. His reign is marked by his marriage to Athaliah, the daughter of Ahab and Jezebel, which led to the introduction of Baal worship in Judah (2 Kings 8:18). Joram's reign was characterized by political instability and conflict, including a revolt by Edom and Libnah (2 Kings 8:20-22). He died of a severe illness, and his death was not mourned by the people (2 Chronicles 21:18-20).

• Other References: The name Joram is also mentioned in genealogical records, such as in 1 Chronicles 3:11, where he is listed as an ancestor of Jesus in the genealogy presented in the Gospel of Matthew (Matthew 1:8).
