Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to measureCorresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent for a measure of liquid is not directly listed as G5547, which is Χριστός (Christos), meaning "Christ" or "Anointed One." However, the concept of measurement and fullness can be metaphorically related to the completeness found in Christ, as seen in passages like Ephesians 4:13, which speaks of attaining "the whole measure of the fullness of Christ." While G5547 does not directly correspond to a unit of measure, it reflects the idea of spiritual completeness and abundance. Usage: The term "bath" is used in the context of measuring liquids, particularly in descriptions of offerings, trade, and temple service. It is mentioned in the context of both practical and ceremonial uses. Context: The bath is a significant unit of measurement in the Hebrew Bible, often used to quantify large amounts of liquid, such as oil or wine. It is part of a system of measures that includes other units like the ephah for dry goods. The bath is mentioned in several passages, including 1 Kings 7:26, where it describes the capacity of the molten sea in Solomon's temple: "It was a handbreadth thick, and its rim was fashioned like the brim of a cup, like a lily blossom. It could hold two thousand baths." The bath is also referenced in Ezekiel 45:14, where it is used to measure oil: "The prescribed portion of oil, measured by the bath, is a tenth of a bath from each cor (which is ten baths or one homer, for ten baths are equivalent to a homer)." These references highlight the bath's role in both religious and economic contexts, underscoring its importance in the daily and spiritual life of ancient Israel.
