Milcah:

queen

International Standard Bible Encyclopaedia

Milcah:

mil'-ka (milkah; Melcha):

(1) Daughter of Haran, wife of Nahor, and grandmother of Rebekah (Ge 11:29; 22:20-23; 24:15,24,47).

(2) Daughter of Zelophehad (Nu 26:33; 27:1; 36:11; Jos 17:3). Many recent authorities are of opinion that Milcah is an abbreviation of Bethmilcah, and is a geographical rather than a personal name.



Smith's Bible Dictionary

Milcah:

(queen or counsel).

(1.) Daughter of Haran and wife of her uncle Nahor, Abraham's brother, to whom she bore eight children (Genesis 11:29; 22:20; 22:23; 24:15; 24:24; 24:47).

(2.) The fourth daughter of Zelophehad (Numbers 26:33; 27:1; 36:11; Joshua 17:3).
