baths — a liquid measure unit, roughly 22 liters or 6 gallons, used for wine, oil, and water
The bath was a standard unit of liquid measurement in ancient Israel, approximately equal to six gallons. In Ezra 7:22, it appears in duplicate within a single verse specifying the Persian king's authorization for temple supplies: up to 100 baths of wine, 100 baths of oil. This Aramaic form of a common Hebrew measurement term reflects the bureaucratic precision of Persian-period administration, where exact quantities mattered for royal accounting of religious subsidies.
