What does Genesis 11:25 mean?

After fathering Terah, Nahor lived another 119 years and had other children. Adding the numbers together, Nahor lived to be just 148 years old, the shortest lifespan yet recorded following the flood. This seems to follow God's comment in Genesis 6:3, which might have been a direct act on His part to limit man's capacity for evil (Genesis 6:5). Based on the rapid drop in lifespan seen after the Tower of Babel (Genesis 11:1–9), this is also likely driven by the hardships of living in a scattered, fallen world.
