After Terah, Abram's (Abraham) father died at the age of 205, GOD called Abram out of his father's household and unto his own. If GOD blessed Abram under Terah's land, Terah would've received Abram's blessing. GOD wanted Abram blessed, and the name and household of Abram/Abraham blessed. 

"Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh." ~Genesis 2:24.

Gen. 11:31: "And Terah took Abram his son, and Lot the son of Haran his son's son, and Sarai his daughter in law, his son Abram's wife; and they went forth with them from Ur of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan; and they came unto Haran, and dwelt there."

V. 32: "And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years: and Terah died in Haran."
