1. bath (unit of liquid measure) — The bath, a Hebrew unit of liquid capacity approximately equal to 22 liters (about 6 US gallons), used for measuring wine, oil, and other liquids in contexts of commerce, tithing, and temple provisions (1 Kings 7:26, 38; 2 Chronicles 2:10, 4:5; Isaiah 5:10; Ezekiel 45:10-14). All three clusters represent the same measurement noun with grammatical variation: plural forms (baths, the baths), singular with article and conjunction (the bath, and the bath), and bare singular (bath). Cross-linguistically consistent: Spanish bato/batos, Arabic بَتّ (batt), Korean 뱃/바트 (baet/bateu), Swahili bathi/pishi, Hindi बत/बात (bat) all transliterate or adapt the same unit of liquid measure. 13×
