In the "Judaism" section, a sentence begins "Along with Isaac and Jacob, he is the one whose name would appear united with God". The words Isaac and Jacob are linked, but this appears to be a mistake, because it links to a painting which seems irrelevant to the topic. Instead, there should be two separate links, so it should say "Along with Isaac and Jacob, he is the one whose name would appear united with God". 2607:F140:400:A000:E9E6:F83A:123E:2D8 (talk) 04:58, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

Birth City
The info box lists Ur Kasdim as his birthplace and equates it with modern Basra, Iraq, without any citation. That equation is not backed up by the articles on Ur Kasdim or on Basra, or anything. There is no consensus among current scholars regarding the identity of the city, and modern Basra doesn't even appear to be a main contender. Venqax (talk) 17:22, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
- Yes, that information was unsupported by anything on the page. It's gone. Iskandar323 (talk) 19:04, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
Extraneous apostrophe
Why is there an apostrophe before the word "around" in this phrase in the current version of this article: 'around 1289 BCE? 98.123.38.211 (talk) 04:23, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
Historicity of lede in Jacob article now corresponds to Abraham article
Edited the lede of the Jacob article to precisely correspond to the consensus of the Abraham page with the word Abraham changed to Jacob. If anything changes in the consensus here, feel free to edit there as well.
“Most scholars view the patriarchal age, along with the Exodus and the period of the biblical judges, as a late literary construct that does not relate to any particular historical era and after a century of exhaustive archaeological investigation, no evidence has been found for a historical Jacob.” IncandescentBliss (talk) 19:58, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

Abram place of Birth,
I was under the impression that is was Ur, the Chedleans. Which he asked for his remains to be taken back there after his death. As he was quite un enthusiastic about leaving. God promises Sarai a Son Whose name is Isac and in his later stages would have many and be a Father to many children and known throughout many Lands. I am however only re literate to what I have read from a well documented group of Scholars. It is not concrete evidence unless it’s written in the Bible of Moses, which is where it came from. 92.40.218.0 (talk) 16:34, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
