Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(7) An hundred measures of wheat.--Here the measure is the Hebrew cor, which is reckoned as equal to ten baths (the latter, however, is a liquid, the former, a dry measure), and accordingly varies, according to the estimate given above, from thirteen to about ninety-seven gallons. One calculation makes it nearly equal to the English "quarter."Parallel Commentaries ...GreekThenἜπειτα (Epeita)AdverbStrong's 1899: Then, thereafter, afterwards.
