Genesis 11:20

And Reu lived two and thirty years, and begat Serug:

And Reu lived thirty two years, and begat Serug. He is thought to give name to a city called Sarug, which, according to the Arabic geographer {i}, was near Charrae, or Haran, in Chaldea; and another Arabic writer {j} speaks of a city called to this day "Sarug", which he places in Mesopotamia.
