Acts 7:4

“Then came he out of the land of the Chaldeans, etc.] The same with Mesopotamia; so Pliny says f265, that “because of Babylon the head of the Chaldean nation — -the other part of Mesopotamia and Assyria is called Babylonia.” And he places Babylon in Mesopotamia; it was out of Ur, in the land of the Chaldeans particularly, that Abraham came, upon his first call: and dwelt in Charan: according to the Jewish writers f266, he dwelt here five years: and from thence, when his father was dead; who died in Haran, as is said in (<011132>Genesis 11:32) and that it was after the death of Terah his father, that Abraham went from thence, is manifest from (<011131>Genesis 11:31,32) (<011204>Genesis 12:4,5)…”

“when his father was dead, he removed into this land--Though Abraham was in Canaan before Terah's death, his settlement in it as the land of promise is here said to be after it, as being in no way dependent on the family movement, but a transaction purely between Jehovah and Abraham himself.”

“Land of the Chaldeans - From Ur of the Chaldees, Genesis 11:31. When his father was dead - This passage has given rise to no small difficulty in the interpretation. The difficulty is this: From Genesis 11:26, it would seem that Abraham was born when Terah was 70 years of age. “And Terah lived seventy years, and begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran.” From Genesis 12:4, it seems that Abraham was 75 years of age when he departed from Haran to Canaan. The age of Terah was therefore but 145 years. Yet in Genesis 11:32, it is said that Terah was 205 old when he died, thus leaving 60 years of Terah’s life beyond the time when Abraham left Haran. Various modes have been proposed of explaining this…”

“After his father was dead - While Terah lived, Abraham lived partly with him, partly in Canaan: but after he died, altogether in Canaan. Acts 7:5”
