In Luke 3:34, Θάρα is a masculine singular genitive noun within repeated “son of” relationships; the APB renders the sequence “the son of Abraham, the son of Terah, the son of Nahor,” placing the named man between Abraham and Nahor.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Luke 3:34, the APB presents the name in the ancestral clause “the son of Terah.” This reflects the verse’s sequence rather than isolating every feature of the Greek form.
