michri in Schaff's Bible Dictionary

MICH'RI (prize of Jehovah), aBenjamite, the ancestor of Elah. 1 Chr 9:8. MICH'TAM occurs in the inscriptions of six Psalms - namely, 16 and 56-60 - but its true meaning is doubtful. Some derive it from a root denoting gold, and our translation gives it in the margin as "the golden Psalm." More probably, however, it is a musical expression whose signification has been lost.
