Why convert Sun's mass to gerah?

Converting Sun's mass to gerah helps contextualize ancient biblical weight units in relation to large astrophysical masses, facilitating interdisciplinary insights.

What is a gerah unit?

A gerah is an ancient Biblical Hebrew weight measure equal to one twentieth of a shekel, used historically for fine accounting and law.

Are these conversions precise for practical use?

Due to the vast scale differences and variations in gerah standards, these conversions are mainly theoretical and used for academic or educational purposes.
