   Abraham (Gen. 11:22-25; Luke 3:34).
   
     (2.) A son of Terah, and elder brother of Abraham (Gen. 11:26,
   27; Josh. 24:2, R.V.). He married Milcah, the daughter of his
   brother Haran, and remained in the land of his nativity on the
   east of the river Euphrates at Haran (Gen. 11:27-32). A
   correspondence was maintained between the family of Abraham in
   Canaan and the relatives in the old ancestral home at Haran till
   the time of Jacob. When Jacob fled from Haran all intercourse
   between the two branches of the family came to an end (Gen.
   31:55). His grand-daughter Rebekah became Isaac's wife (24:67).
