# Mica (מִיכָא) Mica is a mineral substance that appears four times in the Hebrew Bible. Based on the lexicon data provided, the term refers to a specific physical material rather than an abstract concept or proper noun, though the exact properties distinguishing mica from other minerals in ancient Hebrew classification are not elaborated in this entry. The limited frequency of occurrence (only four biblical instances) suggests that mica held a specialized rather than everyday significance in ancient Israelite life. The material appears to have been notable enough to warrant specific naming, indicating that ancient Hebrew speakers recognized it as a distinct substance worthy of individual terminology. However, without additional contextual information from the provided data, the specific applications or cultural importance of mica in biblical contexts cannot be determined from this lexicon entry alone.
