Ram

HezronEnglish

A man from the tribe of Judah living at the time of United Monarchy, first mentioned at Rut.4.19.

Ram, also known as Aram or Arni, was the son of Hezron and a descendant of Judah (Ruth 4:19;1 Chronicles 2:9;Matthew 1:3;Luke 3:33). He was the father of Amminadab and an ancestor of King David and Jesus Christ. Ram is mentioned in the genealogies of David and Jesus, highlighting the lineage from the tribe of Judah to the Messiah. His inclusion in these genealogies underscores the importance of tracing the ancestry of key biblical figures, particularly in relation to the fulfillment of God's promises through the line of David.
