What is a metric tablespoon used for?

A metric tablespoon is primarily used to measure small quantities of liquids or dry ingredients in cooking and household applications.

What is the cor (Biblical) unit?

The cor is an ancient Biblical Hebrew dry volume unit, roughly estimated at about 220 liters, used historically for measuring grain and other commodities.

Why might conversions between tablespoons and cor be approximate?

Because the tablespoon size varies by country and the cor is an ancient unit with estimated size, conversions should be considered approximate.
