John Gill Commentary Acts 7:3

"and said unto him, Get thee out of thy land, and from thy kindred, and come into the land which I shall show thee." — Acts 7:3 (ASV)

And said unto him
Not the words in (Genesis 12:1) for they were said in Haran, these in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt there, and besides, these are different from them; no mention is here made of getting out from his father's house, as there; because his father's house sent along with him, or rather he with them from Mesopotamia to Haran:

get you out of your country ;
from Ur of the Chaldees, where he was born:

and from your kindred ;
his relations that lived in the same place, who did not go along with him:

and come into the land which I shall show you ;
not telling him the place where he was to go; wherefore when he had his first call, and first set out, he knew not where he went; see (Hebrews 11:8) . This was an emblem of the calling of the saints out of the world, from their former course of life, and from among their old companions and friends, to follow Christ wherever he is pleased to lead them; and who at last will bring them safe to the land afar off, the better and heavenly country.
