Calah

Narrator: Chris Genthree
Duration: 27sec
Genesis 10:11‑12
One of the early cities built by Asshur, or, probably by Nimrod, if we read “out of the land he (Nimrod) went forth to Assyria,” as in the margin (Gen. 10:11-1211Out of that land went forth Asshur, and builded Nineveh, and the city Rehoboth, and Calah, 12And Resen between Nineveh and Calah: the same is a great city. (Genesis 10:11‑12)). Supposed to be connected with some of the ruins on the Tigris, from which so many monuments and inscriptions have been discovered; but Calah cannot be distinguished from the other early cities mentioned in connection with Nimrod.
