Gerah (Biblical Hebrew)

The gerah was the smallest unit of weight in ancient Biblical Hebrew measurement systems. It is traditionally considered 1/20 of a shekel.

Since a shekel weighed about 11 grams, a gerah would weigh roughly 0.55 grams. The gerah was used to measure small amounts of precious metals like silver and gold, important in commerce and religious rituals.
