What is a cor (Biblical) used to measure?

A cor (Biblical) is an ancient Hebrew unit used to measure dry volume quantities such as grain or oil.

How large is a teraliter compared to a liter?

A teraliter equals one trillion liters, making it suitable for describing very large volumes like lakes or reservoirs.

Why are conversion results so small when going from cor to teraliter?

Because the cor is roughly 220 liters and the teraliter is extremely large (10¹² liters), the converted value is a tiny fraction.

How to Convert from Cor (Biblical) to Teraliter [TL]

Convert volumes from the ancient Biblical unit cor (Biblical) to the modern large-scale volume unit teraliter (TL) using an easy-to-use online converter focused on volume measurements.

What Is This Tool?

This volume unit converter allows you to transform values from the ancient Biblical cor (Biblical) into the modern teraliter (TL). It is designed to assist users in translating historical dry volume measures into very large modern volume units for applications in archaeology, hydrology, and environmental sciences.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the volume value in cor (Biblical) units
Select cor (Biblical) as the input unit and teraliter (TL) as the output unit
Click the convert button to obtain the volume in teraliters
Use the result for comparison or analysis with large-scale modern volumes

Key Features

Converts dry volume units from cor (Biblical) to teraliter (TL)
Uses established historical and modern volume definitions
Browser-based and easy to use for both scientific and educational purposes
Supports interpretation of ancient measurements within contemporary large volume contexts

Examples

Convert 5 cor (Biblical) to teraliter: 5 × 2.2 × 10⁻¹⁰ = 1.1 × 10⁻⁹ TL
Convert 10 cor (Biblical) to teraliter: 10 × 2.2 × 10⁻¹⁰ = 2.2 × 10⁻⁹ TL

Common Use Cases

Interpreting quantities of grain or oil mentioned in ancient Biblical texts
Performing archaeological and historical studies on ancient storage capacities
Comparing ancient measurements with modern volumes in hydrology and geology
Analyzing large-scale water budgets or geological reservoirs using ancient data

Tips & Best Practices

Recognize that the cor (Biblical) measurement is an approximation from historical estimates
Use the tool mainly for scientific and historical analyses rather than everyday volume conversions
Double-check volume values in teraliters due to the extremely large scale of this unit
Combine converted data with contextual information for meaningful interpretations

Limitations

The cor (Biblical) value is approximate and based on historical reconstructions
Conversions result in very small numbers due to the size difference between units
The teraliter unit represents extremely large volumes, which may be unintuitive for common measuring needs
