The smallest unit was the egg (ביצה), then came the Log (לג), Kav (קב), Se'ah (סאה), Ephah (איפה), Letekh (לתך), and Kor (כור).

(The Letekh is sometimes translated as wine-skin, but this is just a guess.)

These measurements were related as follows:

6 Eggs (Bezah) = 1 Log

4 Log = 1 Kav

6 Kav = 1 Se'ah

3 Se'ah = 1 Ephah

5 Ephah = 1 Letek

2 Letek = 1 Kor
