What is a metric cup defined as?

A metric cup is defined as exactly 250 millilitres or 0.25 liters and is commonly used in countries employing metric volumes.

What does the Biblical log measure?

The Biblical log is an ancient Hebrew liquid volume unit traditionally considered the volume of six medium chicken eggs and estimated to be around 0.3 liters.

Why does the log unit vary in volume?

The log’s volume varies due to different historical methods and sources, making its exact size approximate rather than fixed.
