Nahor
        snorting. (1.) The father of Terah, who was the father of
        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).
