Tonne: The tonne, also known as the metric ton, is a unit of mass in the metric system. It is equal to 1,000 kilograms or 1,000,000 grams. It is widely used internationally for measuring larger quantities of mass and is equivalent to approximately 2,204.62 pounds.
In the New Testament and other Greek texts from antiquity, the talent was also a unit of weight and currency.
The Greek talent was typically lighter than the Hebrew talent, with a common weight of about 57 pounds (26 kilograms) or less.
In the parable of the talents in the New Testament (Matthew 25:14-30), talents were used as a representation of value and investment.
