A deciliter is a unit of volume equal to one-tenth of a liter or 100 milliliters, commonly used in cooking, labs, and small-scale volume measurements.

What is the cor (Biblical)?

The cor, also spelled kor, is an ancient Biblical Hebrew dry volume unit equal to 10 ephahs, roughly estimated at about 220 liters, used in historical and archaeological studies.

Why convert deciliters to cor?

Conversion helps translate modern volume measures into ancient Biblical units for purposes such as biblical scholarship, archaeology, and historical economic analysis.

Common Use Cases

Interpreting quantities in the Hebrew Bible related to grain or oil volumes
Supporting archaeological analyses of storage capacities in ancient times
Studying agricultural yields and economic measures from biblical records
Converting modern volumes for comparative historical research

Tips & Best Practices

Use the tool primarily for dry volume equivalents despite deciliter being a liquid measure
Be aware of the estimated nature of the cor when applying conversions
Apply conversions mostly in academic or archaeological contexts
Consider the scale difference when working with very small volumes

Limitations

The cor’s exact size can vary due to historical interpretation
Conversion assumes similar substance density for dry and liquid volumes
Small modern volumes convert to extremely small ancient units, limiting practical use
