One bath — Of wine. The bath contained about eight gallons. Thus an acre did not yield one gallon.

An ephah — Which was of the same quantity with the bath, only the bath was the measure of liquid things, the ephah of dry things; and a ephah was the tenth part of an homer. So instead of the increase which that fruitful land commonly yielded, they should loose nine parts of their seed."
