is equal to three (hillings Englip, or to the Tetradrachm

But for the meafures of Capacity from the Cheme

advertiling, that the Hebrew Epha or Batus is fo farr 
from agreeing with the /^^^5?^ of the yfr^^^j-, (that is the 
weight of 32 or J4 Rotols or pounds,) that it contains 
of water no lefs then 76 pounds Troy 5 which is juft the 
Cube of the foot in that Liquid. And alio that 
the Hebrew Cubit, (for this and the Epha are th€ Jachin
