About these units
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.
Acre-Inch (ac*in)
An acre-inch equals 1/12 of an acre-foot, representing the water required to cover one acre to a depth of one inch. Irrigation planners and farmers often use acre-inches to fine-tune watering schedules for crops. Because plants require precise hydration, the acre-inch allows for granular control of irrigation needed for soil management and crop health. Agronomists also use acre-inches to convert rainfall into usable water volume estimates for agricultural regions, linking meteorology with farm management.
