מִיכַל

# Michal: A Proper Name in Biblical Hebrew The Hebrew term *mikhal* (מִיכַל) appears in the Bible exclusively as a proper noun designating a specific individual named Michal. With only three occurrences across the biblical text, this name identifies a particular person rather than representing a common concept or descriptor. The lexicon data provided does not include the actual definition text that would clarify the identity or significance of this individual beyond the name itself. Without access to the contextual passages where these three occurrences appear, or to explanatory notes about who Michal was, we cannot determine from the lexicon data alone what role this person played in biblical narratives or why the name was preserved in the text. The limited frequency of appearance—just three times—suggests this was a minor or supporting figure rather than a central character in biblical accounts. Any deeper understanding of Michal's historical or narrative significance would require examination of the actual biblical passages where the name appears, information not included in the lexicon entry provided.
