Log (Biblical)

In the Bible, a log is a unit of liquid measurement used in ancient Israel, primarily for religious and ritual purposes. It is mentioned in the Old Testament, particularly in Leviticus 14:10, 15–21, where it refers to the quantity of oil used in purification rituals. A log is considered to be about 0.3 liters (or about 0.32 quarts), roughly equivalent to six eggshells full of liquid according to traditional Jewish sources like the Mishnah.

The log was part of a system of measurement that included larger units such as the hin (1 hin = 12 logs). Its precise use in offerings and anointing oil recipes highlights the importance of precision in worship and ceremonial laws. Understanding the log provides insight into the daily and spiritual life of the Israelites, emphasizing the structured and symbolic nature of their relationship with God through rituals.
