2 Chronicles 2:10

Context
2:10 Look, I will pay your servants who cut the timber 20,000 kors 1  of ground wheat, 20,000 kors of barley, 120,000 gallons 2  of wine, and 120,000 gallons of olive oil.”

2 Chronicles 20:24

Context
20:24 When the men of Judah 3  arrived at the observation post overlooking the desert and looked at 4  the huge army, they saw dead bodies on the ground; there were no survivors!

1 sn As a unit of dry measure a kor was roughly equivalent to six bushels (about 220 liters).

2 tn Heb “20,000 baths” (also a second time later in this verse). A bath was a liquid measure roughly equivalent to six gallons (about 22 liters), so this was a quantity of about 120,000 gallons (440,000 liters).

3 tn Heb “Judah.” The words “the men of” are supplied in the translation for clarity. The Hebrew text uses the name “Judah” by metonymy for the men of Judah.

4 tn Heb “turned toward.”
