Acts 7:4

Then he came out of the land of the Chaldeans and dwelt in Haran. And from there, when his father was dead, He moved him to this land in which you now dwell.

1. Haran was a "half-way" place. Abraham stayed in Haran for 25 years.

2. Abraham was 75 when he left for Haran. (Genesis 12:4)

3. Haran is located in what is now Syria, near the border with Turkey.

4. He remained here, away from his father and family, but not yet in the final destination. He lived in Haran until the death of his father, Terah.
