So he left the land of the Chaldeans and settled in Haran. After his father died, God moved him from there into this land where you now live.
In context
2Stephen replied: “Brothers and fathers, listen. The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham while he was in Mesopotamia, before he settled in Haran, 3and said to him, ‘Leave your country and your relatives, and come to the land I will show you.’ 4So he left the land of the Chaldeans and settled in Haran. After his father died, God moved him from there into this land where you now live. 5He gave him no inheritance in it, not one foot of ground, yet he promised to give it to him as a possession, and to his descendants after him — and at the time he had no child. 6This is how God put it: his descendants would live as foreigners in a land not their own, and would be enslaved and mistreated for four hundred years.
