In Genesis, his father was still alive when Abraham left. Perhaps Stephen mis-remembered a minor detail. Perhaps someone taught him wrong. But give the guy a break, he was about to be stoned!   jt: This is not an example of anything. Abram was born in Ur of the Chaldees (Babylonia); when he left his father Terah, his nephew Lot and wife Sarai all went with him.  They travelled toward Canaan eventually settling north of Canaan in Haran which is in the land of Assyria (Persia today) and settled there. Terah died in Haran after which Abram, Lot and Sarai moved on again.  So no problem Stephen is right on. Terah was alive when they left Ur of the Chaldees and dead when they left Haran.  The Holy Spirit does not inspire error.   Caroline: Does it really matter?   jt: Of course it matters. "Let God be true and every man a liar" ====================================================== You are wasting your time and energy Judy.  Anyone who sees Judas as a saint is totally out of touch with the Holy Spirit, and if He cannot open their eyes you cannot do it either.  Professing themselves to be wise, they became foolish.
