Apparent contradiction between Stephen's speech (Acts 7:4) and Genesis chronology of Terah and Abraham.
Question 2 from Rod D about Acts 7:4 vs Genesis 11:26, 32 and Genesis 12:4.
The question: Stephen says Abraham left Haran after Terah died, but Genesis numbers suggest Abraham left at age 75 while Terah died at 205 — meaning Terah outlived Abraham's departure by 60 years. Mike acknowledges he does not have the answer off the top of his head, notes Abraham may have moved twice (Chaldeans to Haran to Canaan) which may explain Steven's emphasis, and defers to more careful research.
