Context: • Jekamjah is a biblical figure mentioned in the genealogies of the tribe of Benjamin. The name appears in 1 Chronicles 24:23, where Jekamjah is listed as one of the descendants of Hebron, a Levite. This passage is part of a larger genealogical record that outlines the divisions of the Levites for their service in the temple. The name Jekamjah reflects a common practice in Hebrew naming conventions, where the name of God (Yahweh) is incorporated to signify divine involvement or blessing. The inclusion of Jekamjah in the genealogical records underscores the importance of lineage and heritage in the biblical narrative, particularly concerning the roles and responsibilities of the Levitical priesthood.
