'Dry' in the Bible

You must not have two differing dry measures in your house, a larger and a smaller.

You must have a full and honest weight, a full and honest dry measure, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you.

When someone hears the words of this oath, he may consider himself exempt, thinking, ‘I will have peace even though I follow my own stubborn heart.’ This will lead to the destruction of the well-watered land as well as the dry land.
