Who was Avraham Avinu's mother in the Old Testament?

0 ⤊

We want to know who Avraham's mother was. His wife was Sara (also known as Yiska) and now we want to know the name of his mother.

Her name was Amaslai bas Karnevo (Talmud Bava Basra 91a).

Avraham's mother is not named in the Torah, or in any midrashim or commentary that I've seen.

Abram's ancestry is given in Genesis 11. His father's name is Terah, but no mention is made of his mother's name in the Torah.

Terach was Abraham's father according to tradition, as for his mother I never heard a name.
