    The main thrust of this paper is an extension of the Levy-Desplanques theorem to an object in a Euclidean Jordan algebra when its Peirce decomposition with respect to a Jordan frame is given. Starting to prove the strict diagonal dominance result in the matrix algebras of \(n\times n\) quaternion Hermitian matrices, \(3\times 3\) octonion Hermitian matrices, and the Jordan spin algebra, the authors use some structural theorem on Euclidean Jordan algebras to cover the general case. In the end, a Geršgorin type theorem for the spectral eigenvalues of an object in a Euclidean Jordan algebra is proved.
