About these units
Cord (cd)
The cord is a large unit used in North America to measure firewood, defined as a neatly stacked pile measuring 128 cubic feet (usually arranged as 4 ft × 4 ft × 8 ft). Its strict definition helps prevent fraud in firewood sales and ensures fairness in trade. The cord accounts for both wood and air space, though the amount of actual wood can vary depending on how tightly it is stacked. Despite the prevalence of metric units worldwide, the cord remains a robust standard in forestry, firewood commerce, and rural heating practices across the US and Canada.
Bath (Biblical) (bath)
A bath is a medium-scale Hebrew unit, estimated at about 22–23 liters. It was used for liquids such as wine and oil and appears in numerous Biblical passages relating to temple rituals and royal allocations. As 1/10 of a homer, the bath provided a manageable quantity for domestic and ritual purposes. References to baths of oil and wine in ancient texts reveal the significance of controlled measurement in both trade and religious offerings. Its size roughly corresponds to the volume of a modern bucket, emphasizing its practicality in daily life.
