Gwen,

Regarding your question of September 23rd @ 4:11 p.m.

What is a hin of wine, in the Book of Numbers 15:5?

And the fourth part of an hin of wine for a drink offering shalt thou prepare with the burnt offering or sacrifice, for one lamb.

Gwen, it’s 1 fl.gal.

1 fl.gal. = 230.400 cu.’’

No clue what a "hin" is, but that's not what a gallon is.

hin

an ancient Hebrew unit of liquid capacity, mentioned several times in the Bible. The unit varied in size over time, but typically it was around 3.7 liters, a little smaller than the U.S. gallon.
