TERAH - T>@ - (station), the father of Abram, Nahor and Haran, and through them the ancestor of the great families of the Israelites, Ishmaelites, Midianites, Moabites and Ammonites. kjv@Genesis:11:24-32) The account given of him in the Old Testament narrative is very brief. We learn from it simply that he was an idolater, kjv@Joshua:24:2) that he dwelt beyond the Euphrates in Ur of the Chaldees, kjv@Genesis:11:28) and that in the southwesterly migration, which from some unexplained cause he undertook in his old age, he went with his son Abram, his daughter-in-law Sarai, and his grandson Lot, "to go into the land of Canaan, and they came unto Haran, and dwelt there." kjv@Genesis:11:31) And finally, "the days of Terah were two hundred and five years; and Terah died in Haran." kjv@Genesis:11:32) (B.C. 1921.)

Terah @ the wanderer; loiterer, for some unknown reason emigrated with his family from his native mountains in the north to the plains of Mesopotamia. He had three sons, Haran, Nahor, and Abraham, and one daughter, Sarah. He settled in "Ur of the Chaldees," where his son Haran died, leaving behind him his son Lot. Nahor settled at Haran, a place on the way to Ur. Terah afterwards migrated with Abraham (probably his youngest son) and Lot (his grandson), together with their families, from Ur, intending to go with them to Canaan; but he tarried at Haran, where he spent the remainder of his days, and died at the age of two hundred and five years kjv@Genesis:11:24-32; kjv@Joshua:24:2). What a wonderful part the descendants of this Chaldean shepherd have played in the history of the world!
