1355. Verse 26. And Terah lived seventy years, and begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran. “And Terah lived seventy years,” signifies the beginning of the ninth state, which was the last; “Terah” signifies here, as before, idolatrous worship; “and begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran,” signifies the derivations therefrom. Abram, Nahor, and Haran were persons, from whom also nations were named that were idolaters.
