Milcah (proper name)
1. Milcah (proper name) Proper feminine name מִלְכָּה (Milcah/Milkah), referring to (1) the daughter of Haran and wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother (Gen 11:29, 22:20, 22:23, 24:15, 24:24, 24:47), and (2) a daughter of Zelophehad of Manasseh (Num 26:33, 27:1, 36:11, Josh 17:3). Multilingual evidence uniformly renders this as a single proper noun: eng Milcah/Milkah, spa Milca/Milkah, hin मिल्का, arb مِلْكَةُ, kor 밀가, swa Milka. The split between standalone and conjunction-prefixed forms (וְמִלְכָּה 'and-Milcah') is purely grammatical, not semantic. 11×
