About these units
Log (Biblical) (log)
A log is one of the smallest Biblical liquid measures, approximately 0.3–0.35 liters, or about the volume of a modern cup. Used for oil, wine, and ceremonial purposes, logs appear in priestly regulations for cleansing rituals and sacrificial requirements. The small size reflects its use in precise ritual acts where exact quantities mattered symbolically and practically. Its endurance in rabbinic literature and historical scholarship attests to the precision of ancient ritual systems.
Tablespoon (US) (tbsp)
The US tablespoon is defined as 14.7868 mL, though commonly rounded to 15 mL in nutritional labeling and informal cooking contexts. In American cooking, the tablespoon is indispensable for measuring oils, spices, and small liquid quantities. It is also widely used in medicine for dosing liquid medications at home, though modern practice increasingly recommends milliliters for clarity. Its relationship—3 teaspoons = 1 tablespoon and 16 tablespoons = 1 cup—allows American cooks to scale recipes easily, making it a cornerstone unit of the US culinary measurement system.
