What is a stere used to measure?

A stere is a metric unit of volume equal to one cubic meter, traditionally used to describe the volume of stacked wood or bulk materials.

What does the hin (Biblical) measure?

The hin is an ancient Hebrew liquid volume unit used for measuring liquids like oil and wine, commonly approximated to about 0.57 liters.

Is the conversion between stere and hin exact?

No, the conversion provides approximate equivalences since the hin unit has varying estimated volumes and is an ancient measure.
