What Is This Tool?

This converter changes measurements from grams, a standard SI unit of mass, into bekan, an ancient Hebrew weight used historically as half of a shekel. It helps interpret Biblical and archaeological data involving old units.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the weight value in grams you wish to convert.
  • Select gram [g] as the starting unit and bekan (Biblical Hebrew) as the target unit.
  • Execute the conversion to receive the equivalent weight in bekan.
  • Refer to examples for better understanding of typical conversions.

Key Features

  • Converts weight values from gram [g] to bekan (Biblical Hebrew) units.
  • Based on a fixed conversion rate reflecting historical half-shekel weight.
  • Useful for biblical scholarship, archaeology, and studying ancient Hebrew monetary systems.
  • Browser-based and easy to use for quick unit translation.
  • Provides example conversions to guide users.

Examples

  • 10 grams converts to approximately 1.754385965 bekan.
  • 5 grams converts to approximately 0.8771929825 bekan.

Common Use Cases

  • Translating ancient Biblical weights into modern mass units for research.
  • Assessing the half-shekel temple tax or census mentioned in Exodus and other scriptures.
  • Analyzing archaeological silver weights and numismatic findings from ancient Hebrew culture.
  • Understanding prescribed silver offerings and payments in Biblical law.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Always consider the historical context, as the bekan’s exact weight varied historically.
  • Use this tool alongside scholarly sources for precise interpretations of ancient weights.
  • Apply the conversion rate as an approximation due to differing ancient shekel standards.
  • Combine conversion results with archaeological or numismatic data for comprehensive analysis.

Limitations

  • The bekan’s mass varies because ancient shekel units were not standardized.
  • Conversions offer approximate values and should not be used for exact scientific measurements.
  • Modern conversion relies on scholarly estimates which differ by research source.
