Jerah is mentioned in the Table of Nations in Genesis and 1 Chronicles as one of the sons of Joktan, a descendant of Shem, the son of Noah. Joktan's descendants are believed to have settled in the southern Arabian Peninsula, suggesting that Jerah and his brothers may have been associated with the ancient peoples of that region. However, no further details are provided about Jerah's life or the specific territory he and his descendants inhabited.
