1365. Verse 28 And Haran died in the presence 1 of Terah his father, in the land of his birth, in Ur of the Chaldeans.

'Haran died in the presence' of Terah his father, in the land of his birth, in Ur of the Chaldeans' means that interior worship was erased and became wholly idolatrous, 'Haran' meaning interior idolatrous worship, 'Terah his father', as previously, meaning idolatrous worship in general, 'land of his birth' the source from which it derived, and 'Ur of the Chaldeans' external worship containing falsities.
