A little more information is required as to the source of this event reference so that i can identify the actual question that you are asking.

I was not asking any thing specific. I asked if you ever have compared Abraham and Hammurabi or Nimrod and Marduk.

If this is the historical person you are wanting to compare with Abraham, then from my understanding, when using the information provided by Wikipedia, I can state that they were not living at the same time. Abraham lived 2150-1975 BC - and died around 150 years before Hammurabi was born.

On the other hand, the Oral Tradition of Israel suggest that Abraham and Nimrod were contemporaries in that Abraham's life overlapped Nimrod's life during the latter portion of Nimrod's life. This tradition suggests that Nimrod caused bot Terah and Abraham to Flee from Ur as Nimrod wanted to kill them both. They both probably also left Ur to ensure that Haran's estate passed to his son Lot and not to Haran's chief steward as was the custom at that time.

Wikipedia also suggests that Maruk was the name of a "god" of Babylon.

But I am sure that you already knew all of this.

Yes, I have read a lot more on this than just short Internet blurbs.

I was just curious if you had.

Apparently , yes, you read a lot, and a lot that was quite different than Scripture.
