* - In addition to speaking Hebrew, Abram likely spoken Akkadian and possibly Sumerian. Evidence seems to indicate there was no major dissimilarity between Aramaic and Hebrew at this time. Abraham's grandson Jacob and grandnephew Laban use two different terms in naming the heap of stone.

The Merneptah Stele (circa 13th Century B.C.E) and an even earlier Egyptian inscription (circa the 15th Century B.C.E.) seems to contain some of the earliest known extra-Biblical references to name of "Israel." These ancient inscriptions would thus seemly lend weigh well to Israel's sense of identity from even the earliest times of their existence. - ('''http://www.biblicalarchaeology.org/daily/ancient-cultures/ancient-israel/does-the-merneptah-stele-contain-the-first-mention-of-israel/''') | ||
