JHN 2:6: The capacity of these stone jars is given as “between two and three measures,” that is, twenty to thirty gallons (about 80–120 liters). When expressing the capacity of these jars, it is important to indicate that they were large; it is less important to give precise capacities. GW “18 to 27 gallons” is too precise. It is also possible to give an average volume rather than a range; for example, GECL and PV have “about a hundred liters.” See also the illustration and discussion at Stone jar.
