Usage: The name Chorem appears in the genealogical records of the tribe of Asher in the Old Testament. Context: Chorem is listed as one of the descendants of Asher, a son of Jacob, in the genealogical records found in the Book of 1 Chronicles. Specifically, Chorem is mentioned in 1 Chronicles 7:35, where he is identified as a member of the family of Heber, a prominent clan within the tribe of Asher. The tribe of Asher was one of the twelve tribes of Israel, known for its rich agricultural land and prosperity. The genealogies in 1 Chronicles serve to establish the tribal and familial lines of the Israelites, emphasizing their heritage and the fulfillment of God's promises to the patriarchs. Chorem's inclusion in these records highlights the importance of lineage and the continuity of the Israelite community.
