, מַנְיָא); — ׳מ Ezekiel 45:12; מָנִים 1 Kings 10:17 3t.; = 50 shekels Ezekiel 45:12 (on חֲמִשִּׁים for חֲמִשָּׁה see Hi Co); of gold 1 Kings 10:17; of silver Ezra 2:69; Nehemiah 7:71,72. — The weight of the mina was 1/60 of talent; i.e. according to older (Babylonian) standard, 982.2grammes (= 60 shekels at approximately 16.37g.) = approximately 2lbs.; in Ezekiel's time the mina = 50 shekels = 818.6g. = approximately 1 3-Feblb.

מָנֶה m. pr. part, portion, number (see the root), specially mina, Gr. μνᾶ (Syr. ܡܰܢܝܐܳ, Arab. مَنُّ), the weight of a hundred shekels, as is gathered from 1 Kings 10:17, compared with 2 Chronicles 9:16.-The computation is obscure in the passage, Ezekiel 45:12, “twenty shekels, twenty-five shekels, fifteen shekels shall be your maneh:” this must either be understood of a three-fold maneh, of twenty, twenty-five, and fifteen shekels, or else of one of sixty (15+20+25) shekels. But the former opinion is preferable.
