ஆரான் (Gen 11:26)

பற்றி · About

Haran was the son of Terah and the brother of Abraham and Nahor, as mentioned in Gen.11.26-31. He was born in Ur of the Chaldeans, where his family originally lived. Haran was the father of Lot, Milcah, and Iscah (Gen.11.27, 29). Milcah later married Haran's brother Nahor (Gen.11.29). Tragically, Haran died in the presence of his father Terah in Ur before the family's migration to Haran (Gen.11.28). After Haran's death, Terah took his son Abram (later known as Abraham), his grandson Lot, and his daughter-in-law Sarai (later known as Sarah) and set out from Ur to go to the land of Canaan. However, they settled in the city of Haran, which was named after Terah's deceased son (Gen.11.31). Haran's death in Ur was a significant event in the family's history, as it marked the beginning of their journey towards the land that God would later promise to Abraham and his descendants.
