About these units
Mina (Biblical Greek) (mina (G))
The Greek mina weighed roughly 430 grams, depending on region. As with the Hebrew mina, it served as the intermediate mass unit within the Greek system. Minas appear frequently in classical literature for describing wages, commodity prices, and financial penalties. Their role in ancient bookkeeping showcases the organization of Greek economic life. A mina was traditionally divided into 100 drachmae, linking weight with monetary valuation.
Shekel (Biblical Hebrew) (shekel)
The shekel, approximately 11.3 grams, is the foundational Hebrew weight unit, originally used for silver-based transactions long before it became a monetary term. In Biblical contexts, shekels represent wages, prices, fines, and sacrificial offerings. The shekel's mass-based origins mean that early shekel "coins" were actually weighed pieces of silver rather than minted currency. The modern Israeli currency's name (the New Israeli Shekel) preserves the ancient term, linking present-day society to its deep historical roots.
