Biblical and Theological Dictionary by Richard Watson
PRINTER 1849.


(בּת, bath): A liquid measure equal to about 9 gallons, English measure. It seems to have been regarded as a standard for liquid measures (Eze_45:10), as in the case of the molten sea and the lavers in Solomon's temple (1Ki_7:26, 1Ki_7:38), and for measuring oil and wine (2Ch_2:10; Ezr_7:22; Isa_5:10; Eze_45:14). Its relation to the homer is given in Eze_45:11, Eze_45:14). See WEIGHTS AND MEASURES.

In Luk_16:6, the Greek form βάτος occurs, where it is rendered “measure.” According to Josephus (βάδος), it contained 72 sextarii (Ant. 8:2, 9). Its ordinary capacity appears to have been 8 gals. 3 qts. SEE MEASURES.
