There is, as with most biblical dates, argument about exactly when Abraham was called of God to go to Canaan. The earliest dates are the most accepted. The earliest date is 2140 BC. This week resources show the rout Abraham would have taken south from his home of Haran to Bethel and the land of Canaan. We also see a map of the area of Sodom and Gomorrah that featured both this week and last week in our reading.
