I think this can be fixed by setting the javadoc configuration to use Java 8 as the source. I submitted a PR to this effect here: https://github.com/apache/jena/pull/565 but please give that branch a real test on your local system before merging, I'm traveling at the moment and am not in a great position to run a full build. (Though running mvn javadoc:javadoc seems OK under JDK11)
