Jotham or Yotam (/ˈdʒoʊθəm/; Hebrew: יוֹתָם, "Yahweh is perfect" or "Yahweh is complete"; Greek: Ιωαθαμ; Latin: Joatham) was the youngest of Gideon's seventy sons.
He escaped when the rest were put to death by the order of his half-brother Abimelech (Judges 9:5).
When "the citizens of Shechem and the whole house of Millo" were gathered together "by the plain of the pillar" (i.e., the stone set up by Joshua, 24:26; compare Genesis 35:4) "that was in Shechem, to make Abimelech king", from one of the heights of Mount Gerizim he protested against their doing so in the earliest parable in the Bible,[1] that of the bramble-king.
Having delivered his warning, Jotham fled to Beer from the vengeance of Abimelech (Judges 9:7–21).
