Cor
(, kor, properly a round vessel; Gr. ), a measure both for liquids and solids, containing ten ephahs or baths (Eze 45:14), and equal to the homer (q.v.). In 1Ki 4:22; 1Ki 5:11; 2Ch 2:10; 2Ch 27:5; Luk 16:7, it is rendered indefinitely measure (q.v.); but in 1Es 8:20, it is correctly Anglicized. SEE METROLOGY.

Cor
This Hebrew word, untranslated, denotes a round vessel used as a measure both for liquids and solids. It was equal to one homer, and contained ten ephahs in dry and ten baths in liquid measure (Ezek. 45:14). The Rabbins estimated the cor at forty-five gallons, while Josephus estimated it at about eighty-seven. In 1 Kings 4:22; 5:11; 2 Chr. 2:10; 27:5, the original word is rendered “measure.”
