He said that God appeared to Abraham in Mesopotamia, and directed him to leave the Chaldeans—whereas most rabbinical commentators see Terah as being the one who directed the family to leave Ur Kasdim from Genesis 11:31: "Terah took his son Abram, his daughter-in-law Sarai (his son Abram's wife), and his grandson Lot (his son Haran's child ...
Gershon Hepner concludes, through biblical exegesis and semantics, that it is plausible that the union of Abraham and Sarah was actually incestuous with Sarah being Abraham's half-sister. For example, in Genesis 20:13, Abraham, talking to Abimelech, alludes to Leviticus laws or the Holiness code, by using the phrase "loving kindness". The same ...
Keturah (Hebrew: קְטוּרָה, Qəṭūrā, possibly meaning "incense"; [1] Arabic: قطورة) was a wife [2] and a concubine [3] of the Biblical patriarch Abraham. According to the Book of Genesis, Abraham married Keturah after the death of his first wife, Sarah. Abraham and Keturah had six sons. [2]
The difficult genealogy of Abraham and Sarah in Genesis 11:29 led to confusion as to the identity of Iscah. The resolution found in Targum Pseudo-Yonathan, the Talmud, and other rabbinic sources is that Sarah was Iscah, and that Iscah was a seer. This meaning is derived from the Aramaic root of Iscah, which denotes seeing.
According to the Talmud, Amathlai (Mishnaic Hebrew: אֲמַתְלַאי ʾĂmaṯlaʾy) was the name of the mother of Abraham. According to this tradition, she was the daughter of a man named Karnebo, and the wife of Terah, the father of Abraham. The name of Abraham's mother is not mentioned in the Hebrew Bible.

In one of the tales of a wife confused for a sister, Abraham admitted that his wife Sarah is his half-sister—the daughter of his father, but not his mother. [2] However, in rabbinic literature, Sarah is considered Abraham's niece (the daughter of his brother, Haran). [2] Marriage of cousins was common in the pre-Sinai period.
