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.
Quart (UK) (qt (UK))
A UK quart equals 1/4 of a UK gallon, approximately 1.13652 liters, making it significantly larger than the US quart. Historically used for beer, milk, and household liquids, the UK quart was a staple of British commerce for centuries. In many traditional recipes and food instructions, quarts remain in archival use. The quart illustrates the divergence between US and UK systems following the 18th-century measurement reforms, reflecting how cultural and regulatory environments shape unit evolution.
