Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to measure Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G5518 (χοῖνιξ, choinix): A Greek unit of dry measure, approximately equivalent to a quart or a liter, used in the New Testament to describe a measure of wheat or barley. • G943 (βάτος, batos): A Greek term for a bath, used in the Septuagint and New Testament to refer to the same unit of liquid measure as the Hebrew בַּת. These entries highlight the continuity and adaptation of measurement systems from the Hebrew Bible into the Greek-speaking world, reflecting the cultural and economic exchanges of the ancient Near East. Usage: The term "bath" is used in the context of measuring quantities of liquid, particularly in descriptions of offerings, trade, and construction materials in the Old Testament. Context: The term "bath" (בַּת) appears in the Hebrew Bible as a standard unit of liquid measurement. It is primarily used in contexts involving the measurement of oil, wine, and other liquids. The bath is mentioned in various passages, including those detailing the construction of the Temple and the offerings required by the Law. In 1 Kings 7:26, the bath is used to describe the capacity of the "Sea," a large basin in Solomon's Temple: "It was a handbreadth thick, and its rim was fashioned like the brim of a cup, like a lily blossom. It could hold two thousand baths." This indicates the significant volume the bath represented in ancient measurements. The bath is also referenced in Ezekiel 45:14, where it is used to specify the amount of oil required for offerings: "The prescribed portion of oil, measured by the bath, is a tenth of a bath from each cor (which consists of ten baths or one homer, for ten baths are equivalent to a homer)." The bath, as a unit of measure, reflects the organized and systematic approach to trade and religious practices in ancient Israel. It underscores the importance of precise measurements in maintaining fairness and order in both economic and religious activities.
