What is a cab (Biblical)?

A cab (also spelled kab or kav) is an ancient Hebrew unit of dry volume used in biblical contexts to measure grain, oil, and other commodities.

What does exaliter [EL] measure?

Exaliter [EL] is a unit for extremely large volumes, equal to 10^18 litres, commonly used in planetary and astrophysical sciences.

Why convert cab measurements to exaliters?

Converting cab units to exaliters helps to relate small ancient volumes to very large modern scientific quantities in fields like archaeology and planetary science.
