Strong's Lexicon
hin: Hin

Original Word: הִין
Part of Speech: Noun Masculine
Transliteration: hiyn
Pronunciation: heen
Phonetic Spelling: (heen)
Definition: Hin
Meaning: a hin, liquid measure

Word Origin: Derived from Egyptian origin, reflecting the cultural exchange and influence between ancient Israel and Egypt.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the hin, as it is a specific Hebrew measure. However, the concept of measurement in offerings can be related to Greek terms for measures like "metron" (G3358).

Usage: The term "hin" is a unit of liquid measurement used in the ancient Hebrew context. It is approximately equivalent to 3.5 liters or about 0.92 gallons. The hin is primarily used in the context of religious rituals and offerings, particularly in the instructions for the preparation of anointing oil and drink offerings.

Cultural and Historical Background: The hin was a standard measure in ancient Israel, reflecting the agrarian and sacrificial systems of the time. It was used in the tabernacle and later in the temple for precise measurements of oil and wine, which were integral to the sacrificial system. The use of the hin underscores the importance of order and precision in worship practices, as prescribed in the Mosaic Law.
