King Jehoram or Joram (Hebrew יהורם המלך YHWH is exalted) (924-vr. 892-r. 889-d. 885 BC according to Ussher, or 880-vr. 853-r. 848- d. 841 BC according to Thiele) was the fifth king of the Southern Kingdom of Israel. He is remembered as a notorious fratricide and idolater who died so horribly that he was denied burial in the sepulchres of the kings.
