Meanings and history of the name Milcah

from "malcha" which is Hebrew for "queen"

In the Bible, Rebecca's mother (and Abraham's niece and sister-in-law, marriages having been messier then) was named Milcah. A Milcah was also one of the daughters of Zelophehad in the Old Testament (Numbers 27), who asked of Moses, and was granted, her father's land when he died without male heirs (a piece of radical feminism in those times).
