Units explained
Gerah (Biblical Hebrew)
The gerah was the smallest Hebrew weight, about 0.57 gram (one-twentieth of a shekel).
From a Hebrew word for a small grain or bean.
Ancient Israelite metrology.
Part of the smallest divisions of the biblical shekel.
Neutron Mass
The neutron rest mass is about 1.6749E-27 kg, slightly more than the proton.
The mass of the neutron, the neutral nucleon.
Nuclear physics and reactor science.
Determined after James Chadwick discovered the neutron in 1932.
Gerah (Biblical Hebrew) to Neutron Mass conversion formula
Note: this conversion uses a generally accepted modern value. Historical and regional definitions of this unit varied across times and places.
The relationship between gerahs (biblical hebrew) and neutron mass:
To convert gerahs (biblical hebrew) to neutron mass, multiply the value in gerahs (biblical hebrew) by 3.40313e+23. To reverse, multiply neutron mass by 2.938471e-24.

Step-by-step: convert gerahs (biblical hebrew) to neutron mass
- Write down the value in gerahs (biblical hebrew) (gerah).
- Multiply that value by the factor 3.40313e+23.
- The product is the equivalent value in neutron mass (mn).
- To reverse, multiply the neutron mass value by 2.938471e-24.
Worked examples
Example 1 — Convert 1 gerah to mn:
1 × 3.40313e+23 = 3.40313e+23 mn
Example 2 — Convert 100 gerah to mn:
100 × 3.40313e+23 = 3.40313e+25 mn
Real-world example — From microns to sub-micron features
One gerah (biblical hebrew) equals one thousand neutron mass — the conversion semiconductor designers do constantly when comparing mask feature dimensions to actual transistor gate lengths.
1 gerah × 3.40313e+23 = 3.40313e+23 mn
Real-world example — Infrared to visible-spectrum mapping
A 10-gerah (biblical hebrew) thermal infrared wavelength corresponds to a much larger number in neutron mass, the unit favoured for ultraviolet and visible-light specifications.
10 gerah × 3.40313e+23 = 3.40313e+24 mn
Real-world example — Mid-micron to nanometer
3 gerahs (biblical hebrew) equals 3,000 neutron mass — useful when relating mid-infrared wavelengths (typically quoted in microns) to nanometer-scale visible-light wavelength tables.
3 gerah × 3.40313e+23 = 1.020939e+24 mn
