Left Ur Kasdim on Hashem's command at 70

Why did Avraham's family leave Ur Kasdim?
"וַיִּקַּח תֶּרַח אֶת אַבְרָם... לָלֶכֶת אַרְצָה כְּנַעַן "
" וַיֹּאמֶר י"י אֶל אַבְרָם לֶךְ לְךָ"
Why is the command achronological?
Meaning of "מֵאַרְצְךָ וּמִמּוֹלַדְתְּךָ וּמִבֵּית אָבִיךָ"
Other occurrences of the word "מולדת"
Location of Ur Kasdim - Is Avraham from עבר הנבהר?
"וְאַבְרָם בֶּן חָמֵשׁ שָׁנִים וְשִׁבְעִים שָׁנָה בְּצֵאתוֹ מֵחָרָן"
"אֲנִי י"י אֲשֶׁר הוֹצֵאתִיךָ מֵאוּר כַּשְׂדִּים"
