About these units
Milliliter (mL)
A milliliter, defined as 1/1,000 of a liter or precisely 1 cubic centimeter, is a small but enormously significant volume unit in cooking, medicine, pharmacy, and laboratory science. Medical syringes, dosing spoons, and IV solutions rely heavily on milliliter accuracy. In laboratories, mL measurements are routine for preparing reagents, dilutions, and biological media. Because 1 mL = 1 cm³, many devices use either notation interchangeably depending on context. Despite its small size, the milliliter is commonly used in daily life as well—perfume bottles, beverage labels, and household cleaners often list contents in milliliters. Its precision and simplicity make the milliliter one of the world's most practical measurement 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.
