In Genesis 46:10, Jamin is mentioned as one of the descendants of Jacob who went to Egypt.

• Jamin, Levite: In Nehemiah 8:7, Jamin is mentioned as a Levite who helped explain the Law to the people: "The Levites—Jeshua, Bani, Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodiah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, and Pelaiah—instructed the people in the Law as they stood in their places."
