A liquid measure used in the ancient Israelite cultic and social contexts, especially for oil and other ritual liquids; understood as a standardized unit of capacity, roughly equivalent to approximately 0.3 to 0.5 liters (varies by estimation). The term refers primarily to the measurement itself, not the vessel, but is always used with reference to volumes of liquid, never solids.
