Joachim is traditionally recognized as the husband of Saint Anne and the father of Mary, the mother of Jesus. According to Christian beliefs, he is considered the maternal grandfather of Jesus. The story of Joachim and Anne is found in the Gospel of James, which is part of the New Testament apocrypha. Joachim’s feast day is celebrated on 26 July, alongside Saint Anne. In Christian tradition, Joachim’s professional life is not explicitly detailed, as the focus is primarily on his familial relationships and role in the lineage of Jesus.
