| − | * ''"...and all that he had, and Lot with him"'': Compare this phrase with [[Gen 12:5]] where the order is reversed, "...and Lot his bother's son and all their substance". The change in order suggests that Lot fell out of favor with Abraham sometime after departing Haran and before his return from Egypt to the Holy Land. (See Leibowitz reference below.)

| − | * ''Why did Lot and Abram separate?'': [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramban Ramban] suggests that the phrase "the land was not able to bear them" (v. 6) in conjunction with the reference to flocks and herds (v. 5) implies that there was a quarrel over limited fields for grazing. The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midrash#Midrash_Rabbah Midrash Rabbah] and the Pesikta Rabbati claim the quarrel here is about deeper moral principles, such as those described in [[Gen 18:19]]. (See Liebowitz reference below for quotes; see also [[Gen 13:11|Gen 13:11-12]].)
