Genesis ?11:27
These are the descendants of Terah: Terah begat Abram?
The midrash explains that no matter who the person is, as long as a person's name is repeated in the Torah, that person will have a share in the afterlife. Terah was a idol worshiper! This shows that he completely repented in his later years and won an inheritance in the next life.
Genesis ?11:32
And Terah* lived two hundred and five years, and he died in Haran.
Terah died in 2083 after the creation of the world. At that time, Abraham's son Isaac was already 35 years old.
Rabbi Rashi commented through many different scriptures that Terah died more than 60 years after Abraham left Haran. The Torah records Terah's death here to avoid exposing Abraham to accusations of disrespecting and abandoning his old father. In another sense, it is understandable to say that he is dead first. For the sages taught that the wicked, though alive, are still dead, and the righteous, though dead, are still alive. In a spiritual sense, Terah, the evil one, did die.
Rabbi Ramban comments that when a person's duty is completed, the Torah records his death. Therefore, the Torah often records the death of the father before continuing with the story of the son, even if the father died many years later.
Rabbi Maharal gave a more in-depth explanation of why Abraham did not violate the commandment to "honor your parents". It was because God gave him another command at that time, asking him to lead his family there. The Holy Land of Israel (Chapter 12:1) creates a new way of life on the earth. From that time on, he was chosen by God and given new responsibilities, so he was no longer a member of his old family. In this sense, his life was completely cut off from his hometown and the people in his hometown, so it was as if Terah was dead.
