Verse 32

And the days of Terah were two hundred years ,.... His days are summed up as none of the rest are in this genealogy, that it might be observed; his death being the time of Abram's leaving Chaldea and coming into the land of Canaan, given to him and his seed for an inheritance; see Acts 7:4 .

and Terah died in Haran : the Arabic historian F19 Elmaaciuns, ut supra. (p. 31. apud Hottinger. p. 282.) says, he died in Haran in the month Elul, in the year of his age two hundred and sixty five; but he gives him sixty years too many: a Jewish chronologer F20 R. Gedaliah, Shalshalet, fol. 2. 1. says he died in the thirty fifth year of Isaac. Perhaps he gave the name to this place, where he dwelt a while, in memory of his son Haran, which before might be called by another name, Padanaram, as it seems to be called even after this; see Genesis 24:10 .
