About these units
Cab (Biblical) (cab)
A cab is a small Biblical volume measure estimated at roughly 1 liter or slightly less. It was used for grains, spices, legumes, and other dry goods. The cab appears in scriptural narratives to represent modest quantities suitable for household use or famine conditions, making it a culturally meaningful indicator of scarcity or modest provision. Its place in the Hebrew hierarchy—1 cab = 1/6 of a seah (another unit not in your list)—shows how everyday domestic needs shaped measurement scales.
Exaliter (EL)
An exaliter, equal to 10¹⁸ liters, appears in discussions of planetary-scale volumes, such as estimating water content across extraterrestrial oceans, atmospheric volumes of gas giants, or hydrospheric mass estimates in exoplanet research. Because this unit is so large, it is rarely used in practical Earth-based science except in global summations. However, in cosmology or exoplanet studies, Vast quantities of liquids or gases on super-Earths or ocean worlds may be expressed in EL to maintain manageable numeric magnitudes. The exaliter represents the outer limits of volumetric units still grounded in physical application rather than purely abstract scaling.
