Jokdeam standard

Where is Jokdeam in the Bible?

Jokdeam was a town located in the hill country of Judah, as mentioned in Joshua 15:56. This settlement was part of the territory allotted to the tribe of Judah in the Old Testament during the division of the promised land among the Israelites. While the Bible provides limited information about Jokdeam specifically, its inclusion in the list of Judahite cities indicates it was an established community in the southern kingdom. The exact modern location of Jokdeam remains uncertain, though it would have been situated in the central or southern highlands of ancient Judah. Like many towns in this region, Jokdeam represented the territorial holdings and settlement patterns of Judah during the early period of Israelite occupation of Canaan.
