He is a member of the patriarchal family line and is associated with the early ancestry of the Israelites. Genealogy and Family Nahor is mentioned as the son of Terah and the brother of Abram (later Abraham) and Haran. <a href="/genesis/11-26.htm">Genesis 11:26</a> states, "Terah lived 70 years and became the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran." This positions Nahor within the foundational lineage that leads to the formation of the Israelite nation. Nahor's family is originally from Ur of the Chaldeans, a significant city in ancient Mesopotamia. Nahor married Milcah, the daughter of his brother Haran, as recorded in <a href="/genesis/11-29.htm">Genesis 11:29</a>: "Abram and Nahor took wives for themselves. The name of Abram’s wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor’s wife was Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of both Milcah and Iscah." This marriage further intertwines the familial relationships within Terah's family. Descendants Nahor is the father of several children, who play crucial roles in the biblical narrative. <a href="/genesis/22-20.htm">Genesis 22:20-24</a> provides a list of Nahor's offspring through Milcah: "Some time later Abraham was told, 'Milcah has also borne sons to your brother Nahor: Uz the firstborn, his brother Buz, Kemuel (the father of Aram), Kesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel.'" Bethuel is particularly noteworthy as he becomes the father of Rebekah, who later marries Isaac, Abraham's son, thus continuing the Abrahamic line. Nahor also had children through his concubine, Reumah, as mentioned in the same passage: "And Reumah bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah." These descendants, while not as prominently featured in the biblical narrative, contribute to the broader genealogical context of the region. Cultural and Historical Context Nahor's life and family are set against the backdrop of the ancient Near East, a region characterized by its complex social and familial structures. The practice of marrying within the extended family, as seen in Nahor's marriage to Milcah, was common and served to preserve family wealth and alliances. Nahor's descendants, particularly through Bethuel and Rebekah, play a pivotal role in the continuation of the covenantal promises made by God to Abraham. The interconnections between Nahor's family and Abraham's lineage highlight the providential unfolding of God's plan for His chosen people. Legacy Nahor's legacy is primarily seen through his descendants, who are integral to the biblical narrative and the unfolding of God's promises to Abraham. His familial connections underscore the importance of kinship and covenant in the biblical account, as well as the intricate tapestry of relationships that God uses to fulfill His divine purposes. In summary, Nahor is a key patriarchal figure whose life and lineage are woven into the foundational history of the Israelite people, illustrating the continuity of God's covenantal promises through successive generations.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div>Nahorhoarse; dry; hot<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div>Nahor(snorting), the name of two persons in the family of Abraham. <ol> <li>His grandfather; the son of Serug and father of Terah.
