What is a hin (Biblical)?

A hin is an ancient Hebrew volume unit historically used to measure liquids like oil and wine, roughly equal to about 0.5–0.6 liters.

How many centiliters are in one hin?

One hin (Biblical) is approximately equal to 366.67 centiliters.

Why use centiliters instead of liters?

Centiliters offer a convenient scale for smaller liquid volumes common in food, beverage, and laboratory measurements.

Can I use this converter for precise scientific measurements?

The converter provides approximate values since the hin unit's historical variance means exact precision is not guaranteed.
