There is no direct evidence that Jesus is related to Shem, but some people believe that they may be related indirectly.
Shem was one of the sons of Noah, and Noah is a direct ancestor of Abraham, who is a direct ancestor of Jesus. So, if Shem and Noah are related, then Jesus may be related to Shem indirectly.
However, there is no way to know for sure if this is the case.
Jesus was not directly related to Rachel, as Rachel lived many generations before Jesus. Jesus belonged to the lineage of King David, who was descended from Rachel's sister, Leah, through David's father Jesse.
Shem was a son of Noah, and accompanied him on the Ark. (Gen 6:10ff.) After landing, Shem fathered sons: Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud and Aram. (Gen 10:22) We loose count here because Gen 11:11 tells us that Shem live 500 yrs, and had more sons and daughters ... no names or numbers. Further,1 Chron 1:17 gives us names of 4 more sons of Shem in addition to the ones mentioned above, viz: Uz, Hul, Gether and Meshech.
Shem, Ham and Japheth See the Bible Genesis 6:10
According to Genesis 11:10-11, Shem was 600 years old when he died. This part of Genesis has all the hallmarks of fiction, so we should not accept this as Shem's real age even if he was a real, historical person. Noah was 500 years old when he first became a father (Genesis 5:32) and the Flood happened when Noah was 600 (Genesis 7:11). Shem was exactly 100 years old when he became a father, and then lived to 600 years. Too many nice, round numbers.
Oh, what a lovely question! Shem's descendants are believed to have spread far and wide across the world over time. Today, many people with ancestry tracing back to Shem can be found in various countries, living their lives and carrying on their unique cultural traditions. It's truly a beautiful reminder of how interconnected we all are, no matter where we call home.
The genealogy of Christ is not all that clear. We know that it was his mother who he was related to. She was a descendant of David who was a descendant of Abraham.Another answer:Yes. Shem ("Sem" in the King James version) appears in Jesus' genealogy in Luke 3:36.
