Overview
Jekamiah appears in the genealogical records of 1 Chronicles as a son of Shallum and descendant of the royal line of Judah. Though little detail is provided about his personal life, his inclusion in Scripture's genealogies affirms that God meticulously tracked His covenant people and their lineage through history.
Key Scriptures
"The sons of Shallum: Jakimah, and Zephaniah, and Tiria, and Asarela, four." (1 Chronicles 3:15, KJV). The genealogy reminds us that "The LORD establishes the plans of the heart; but the counsel of the LORD stands forever" (Psalm 33:11, ESV).
Application
Consider how God preserved His people faithfully through generations—encouraging believers today that He remains faithful to complete His purposes in our families and lives.
