About these units
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.
Quarter (US) (qr (US))
The US quarter equals 25 pounds, serving as a smaller commercial subdivision of the hundredweight. It was used for pricing agricultural goods, livestock feed, and some industrial materials. Its convenience arises from the fact that four quarters make a hundredweight, simplifying scaling between small and medium quantities. Today it is mostly of historical interest, but agricultural economists still encounter it when analyzing archival data.
