The father of Abraham, he later settled in Haran, where he died. Thename Terhah is associate d in literature with the moon-god, and some thusthink there exists a direct etymological lin k between his name and the'teraphim', that is, small idolatrous images that were kept in most households. When we consider the subsequent history of Terah and hisline (excluding that o f Abraham through Isaac), then this is not at allunlikely. Indeed, Josephus describes Tera h as an idolater. However, nearto the city of Haran, there was a place that bore Terah's name , known tothe Assyrians as Turahi, and to the Akkadians as Turahu. (Internet:www.biblebeliev ers.org.au/nation01.htm)
