Genesis 12:4

12:4 So Abram left, just as the Lord had told him to do, and Lot went with him. (Now Abram was 75 years old when he departed from Haran.)


sn So Abram left. This is the report of Abram’s obedience to God’s command (see v. 1).

tn Heb “just as the Lord said to him.”

tn The disjunctive clause (note the pattern conjunction + subject + implied “to be” verb) is parenthetical, telling the age of Abram when he left Haran.

tn Heb “was the son of five years and seventy year[s].”
