Abstract

Historical articles based on the Bible are of considerable interest. Therefore, the present article is in the field of proctology with reference to the case of King Jehoram. Recently, it was attributed to colorectal carcinoma. However, this is questioned here on the ground that he probably suffered from rectal prolapse. This better concept of his illness is elaborated here with the assistance of modern cases.
Keywords: Bible; King Jehoram; intestine; prolapse.
