Genesis 12:4

So Abram departed, as the Lord had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.

Cross-reference

Genesis 26:5 cites Abraham's obedience as grounds for God's covenant blessing to Isaac. Abram's immediate departure here is a defining example of that obedience.

Genesis 11:31 Historical context

Genesis 11:31 says Terah took Abram from Ur. It provides earlier context for the family's journey mentioned here.

Genesis 11:27 Historical context

Genesis 11:27 establishes Abram's family tree. It's the necessary background for his departure noted in 12:4.

Genesis 25:7 records Abraham's age at death (175). Paired with his age at departure (75) here, these bracket Abraham's 100 years in Canaan — two bookend biographical markers.

Hebrews 11:8 directly highlights Abram's obedient faith in leaving, as described in this verse.

Acts 7:4 Historical context

Acts 7:4 directly recounts Abram leaving the Chaldeans and then Haran — Stephen retelling this exact event in his speech before the Sanhedrin.
