Chapter 21

1

Now, my father Terah took many wives and begat many children.

2

And when he was sixty-five years of age, he took to wife Amthelo, the daughter of Cornebo, the son of Serug, and she was a young woman of fifteen years.

3

And when Terah was seventy years old, his wife Amthelo conceived and bare him a son whom he named Abram, which by interpretation is Exalted Father, for he said, Nimrod hath raised me on high over all his host, wherefore, my seed shall reign as gods forever.

4

Now this prophecy he spake, not knowing that it was of the Lord God.
