What does 1 cubic kilometer represent in volume?

One cubic kilometer equals the volume of a cube with sides one kilometer long, corresponding to 1×10^9 cubic meters or 1×10^12 liters.

What is the biblical cor used to measure?

The cor is an ancient dry volume unit dating from Biblical Hebrew times, equal to about 220 liters, primarily used for grain, oil, and other commodities.

Can I use this tool for precise scientific volume conversions?

This tool provides approximate conversions useful for historical and archaeological contexts; for exact scientific purposes, variations in definitions should be considered.

What Is This Tool?

This converter facilitates the transformation of volume values from cubic kilometers, a modern SI-derived unit, into the cor, an ancient Biblical Hebrew unit of dry volume. It helps bridge contemporary volume measurements with historical and archaeological contexts.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the volume value in cubic kilometers you wish to convert.
Select 'cubic kilometer [km³]' as the source unit and 'cor (Biblical)' as the target unit.
Click on the convert button to get the equivalent volume expressed in cor (Biblical).
Interpret the result with consideration to the approximate nature of historical units.

Key Features

Converts large scale volumes from cubic kilometers to cor (Biblical).
Supports understanding of ancient Hebrew volume measures in modern terms.
Useful for biblical studies, archaeology, and historical volume comparisons.
Browser-based and easy to use for quick conversions.
Displays conversions applying historically relevant approximations.

Examples

2 cubic kilometers equals 9,090,909,090.909 cor (Biblical).
0.5 cubic kilometer equals 2,272,727,272.727 cor (Biblical).

Common Use Cases

Translating large modern volume measurements into ancient Biblical terms for scriptural interpretation.
Estimating grain or commodity quantities in archaeological or historical research.
Comparing ancient agricultural capacities with current measurement standards.
Supporting studies in historical economy and measurement systems.

Tips & Best Practices

Always consider the historical approximation nature when interpreting results.
Use this tool as a reference alongside other contextual data in archaeology and biblically related studies.
Recognize the distinction between dry volume and possible variations in substance densities when applying conversions.
Cross-check volumes for consistency when performing comparative metrology.

Limitations

The exact size of the cor (Biblical) varies slightly due to historical interpretation differences.
Regional and temporal variations in measurement standards can affect conversion accuracy.
Cor measures dry volume; this tool assumes equivalent substance density which may not always apply.
Results should be used as approximate estimates rather than precise values.
