About these units
Cubic Meter (m³)
The cubic meter is the SI unit of volume, representing the volume of a cube one meter per side. It is vastly larger than a liter, since 1 m³ = 1,000 L. Cubic meters measure the volumes of rooms, shipping containers, refrigeration units, natural gas consumption, and water flows in hydrology and civil engineering. Because it is derived directly from the meter, the m³ integrates perfectly into other SI measurements such as density (kg/m³) and flow rate (m³/s). In industry, pricing and standards for timber, construction materials, and natural gas often use cubic meters. For environmental science, m³ is essential when modeling rainfall runoff, river discharge, or air pollutant concentrations. It stands as the backbone of large-scale volumetric measurement.
Hin (Biblical) (hin)
The hin is a smaller Biblical liquid measure, estimated at roughly 3.7–4 liters, or 1/6 of a bath. It was used primarily for ritual offerings, such as anointing oils and sacrificial libations. Because hin-sized quantities were manageable and portable, priestly instructions in Exodus and Leviticus frequently specify hin measurements for ceremonial mixtures. The hin illustrates how ancient systems used proportional units to structure both sacred and economic activities.
