An Entity of Type: organisation, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org:8891

A gerah (Hebrew: גרה, romanized: gêrāh) is an ancient Hebrew unit of weight and currency, which, according to the Torah (Exodus 30:13, Leviticus 27:25, Numbers 3:47, 18:16), was equivalent to 1⁄20 of a standard "sacred" shekel. The Mishnah (1:1) and Jerusalem Talmud (1:4) in Shekalim discuss whether the kalbon (agio) which was sometimes required to be added to the half shekel annually levied for the Temple, was a "ma'ah" or a "chatzi ma'ah" (half ma'ah).

  • A gerah (Hebrew: גרה, romanized: gêrāh) is an ancient Hebrew unit of weight and currency, which, according to the Torah (Exodus 30:13, Leviticus 27:25, Numbers 3:47, 18:16), was equivalent to 1⁄20 of a standard "sacred" shekel. A gerah is known in Aramaic, and usually in Rabbinic literature, as a ma'ah (מעה; Mishnah Hebrew pl. ma'ot "מעות" which means "coins"). It was originally a fifth of a denarius or zuz, as seen in the Torah and in Ezekiel (45:12), then became a sixth of a dinar/zuz, such as the coinage of Persian-era Yehud, which came in two denominations: approximately 0.58 gram for the ma'ah and approximately .29 gram for the half ma'ah (chatzi ma'ah). .58 X 6 = 3.48 grams, which is about the weight of a zuz/denarius based on a 14 gram shekel. The Mishnah (1:1) and Jerusalem Talmud (1:4) in Shekalim discuss whether the kalbon (agio) which was sometimes required to be added to the half shekel annually levied for the Temple, was a "ma'ah" or a "chatzi ma'ah" (half ma'ah).

  • Gerah (del hebreo grano "גרה") es una antigua unidad de peso de la que se servían los hebreos para la fabricación de moneda. Correspondía a 16 gramos de cebada, la vigésima parte de un siclo, equivalente a 0, 679872 gr. Esta moneda era denominada en arameo ma'ah "מעה" (pl. ma'ot "מעות", que significa "dinero"). Originalmente era una quinta parte de un denario o siclo, tal como puede observarse en el Éxodo “20 gerah son un shekel”, posteriormente se convirtió en la sexta parte de una dinar. (es)
  • Gera: ukuran timbangan pada zaman Alkitab. 1 syikal adalah 20 gera (Kel 30:13) atau dalam ukuran gram, 1 Syikal = 11,4 gram. Jadi 1 gera adalah 11,4 /20 sekitar 0,57 gram. * l * * s (in)
  • Gera – jednostka miary używana w starożytności, odpowiada masie około 0,6 grama. 10 ger stanowi 1 bekę. O gerze wspomina Biblia: Sykl ma mieć dwadzieścia gera; (...) a wasza mina ma wynosić pięćdziesiąt sykli (Biblia warszawska). (pl)
