Leviticus 27:16

16 If a man dedicates to the Lord part of the land that is his possession, then the valuation shall be in proportion to its seed. A homer1 of barley seed shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver.


Isaiah 5:10

10  gFor ten acres1 of vineyard shall yield but one bath,

and a hhomer of seed shall yield but an ephah.2


Ezekiel 45:11–14

11 The ephah and the bath shall be wof the same measure, xthe bath containing one tenth of a homer,1 and the ephah one tenth of a homer; the homer shall be the standard measure. 12 yThe shekel shall be twenty gerahs;2 twenty shekels plus twenty-five shekels plus fifteen shekels shall be your mina.3

13 zThis is the offering that you shall make: one sixth of an ephah from each homer of wheat, and one sixth of an ephah from each homer of barley, 14 and as the fixed portion of oil, measured in baths, one tenth of a bath from each cor4 (the cor, like the homer, contains aten baths).5


Hosea 3:2

So I bought her for fifteen shekels of silver and a yhomer and a lethech1 of barley.


Acts 4:34–37

34 pThere was not a needy person among them, for qas many as were owners of lands or houses sold them and brought the proceeds of what was sold 35 and rlaid it at the apostles’ feet, and sit was distributed to each as any had need. 36 Thus Joseph, who was also called by the apostles Barnabas (which means tson of encouragement), a Levite, a native of Cyprus, 37 sold a field that belonged to him and brought the money and ulaid it at the apostles’ feet.


Acts 5:4

While it remained unsold, did it not remain your own? And after it was sold, was it not at your disposal? Why is it that you have contrived this deed in your heart? You have not lied to man but ato God.
