Two men named Nahor appear in Genesis. Terah's father was the grandfather Abraham was named for, generations back in the genealogy from Shem. Terah's son, Abraham's brother, stayed behind in Mesopotamia when Abraham left for Canaan, and his descendants there included Rebekah, who would later marry Isaac, and Laban, Jacob's uncle and father-in-law.
