WEB

Now this is the history of the generations of Terah. Terah became the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran. Haran became the father of Lot.

KJV

Now these are the generations of Terah: Terah begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran begat Lot.

Commentary

Now these are the generations of Terah,.... Or the genealogy of his posterity, which is a very short one; f or it only gives an account of his three sons as before: Terah begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran: and of three grand children, Lot, Milcah, and Iscah, the children of Haran; and chiefly for the sake of Abram it is given, and indeed the above genealogy of Shem, which ends with him; and of whom and whose posterity the remaining part of this book of Genesis treats: and Haran begat Lot: of whom we have some further account in Gen 13:1 .
