| | Talent (weight) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | 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; all that matters to the story is that even one talent was a very large sum. | | | A talent is an ancient unit of mass. | | | The Babylonians and Sumerians had a system in which there were 60 shekels in a mina and 60 minas in a talent (in Ancient Greece one talent = 26 kg of silver). |

| | Weights of the denomination of maneh have been discovered in Nineveh and Babylonia, and show that a heavy and a light talent were used, the former weighing 60.6 kilogrammes and the latter exactly one-half or 30.3 kilogrammes. | | | It appears from this that the Jewish maneh of gold was reckoned at 50 shekels, that the shekel of gold was a trifle lighter than the Assyrian shekel of weight, being 16.37, according to Madden 16.39, grammes, and that the shekel of gold and the shekel of weight were intended to be identical. | | | As with measurements of lengths, units of weight have been found as standards in palaces and temples, but here again there is a very considerable variation in the value of the standards from area to area, and even from city to city. |
