Old Testament
Iscah
Iscah is identified in the Genesis genealogy as the daughter of Haran and sister of Milcah and Lot.
Iscah appears only in the genealogical record of Terah's family in Genesis 11:29. As the daughter of Haran, she is part of the ancestral line from which Abram and his family emerged. While the text provides no further details regarding her life or actions, her inclusion preserves the historical lineage of the patriarchs.
