Where did abram come from?

Answer 1

There is no information specifically in The Bible about where Abraham grew up, but it is mentioned that he departed from his father's house in Ur Kásdim, typically translated as Ur of the Chaldees.

Answer 2

The Book of Genesis describes Abraham as being born in the city of Ur in Mesopotamia, travelling to Haran, a city to the north-west, then moving into the land of the Canaanites. It describes him as travelling to Egypt and visiting certain of the Philistine kings in their cities, although the Philistines are known not to have arrived in the Levant until many centuries after the time attributed to Abraham.

Most biblical scholars, on a wide range of compelling evidence, believe that Abraham did not really live.
