acre

Hebrew: צֶמד —transliteration: tsemed —meaning: a couple, a pair

“Acre” is the translation of the Hebrew word “tse'med,” which properly means a yoke, and denotes a space of ground that may be plowed by a yoke of oxen in a day. It is about an acre of our measure (Isaiah 5:10; 1 Samuel 14:14).
