Terminology is critical in IT where similar terms can mean different things, as Dick has also indicated. Suggest you learn what exactly "merge" means.
I've two inferences from what you say:
1. You want to have a single Job in place of all the other jobs? In doing so, as Dick has suggested, you'd copy all of them into a new dataset (using the tso/ispf editor or in a batch job) and then SUBmit it. Of course, you'll keep only one Job card in the final Job
2. Second, you want to SUBmit them one after another. If so, possibly INTRDR is what you are looking for.
If these are not among your choice, explain again about what you want.
