Talent (Biblical Hebrew), unit of measure
|
|
A talent (Latin: talentum) is an ancient unit of mass. It corresponded generally to the mass of water in the volume of an amphora, i.e. a one foot cube. When used as a measure of money, it refers to a talent-weight of gold or of silver. The talent as a unit of coinage is mentioned in the New Testament in Jesus's parable of the talents, but it is not clear (or important) exactly what quantity of money is implied; the important point in the parable is that even one talent was a very large sum.
