Boyd’s Bible Dictionary:
Musical term for six Psalms
Concise Bible Dictionary:
This word occurs in the headings of Psalm 16; Psalm 56-60. Its meaning is uncertain. The margin of the AV reads “a golden psalm.” Gesenius and others suppose the word michtam to be equivalent to miktab, which in Isaiah 38:9 is translated “writing,” hence a “poem, psalm, song.” The LXX translates it “a writing of David.”
