        DefinitionShort: a Hebrew liquid measure of between eight and nine gallons or approximately thirty-five liters

        Glosses: bath

        Comments: Because of the possible symbolic numerical values used in the Parable of the Dishonest Steward, it is important to retain the numerals, while making some adjustment in the case of the term βάτος. Accordingly, one may speak of ‘one hundred barrels of olive oil’ or ‘one hundred containers of olive oil’ or ‘one hundred large jars of olive oil.’
