'Peck measure' in the Bible

People do not light a lamp and put it under a peck-measure but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all that are in the house.

Then He put a question to them: "A lamp is not brought to be put under a peck-measure or under a bed, is it? Is it not rather to be put on the lamp-stand?

No one lights a lamp and puts it in a cellar or under a peck-measure, but he puts it on the lampstand, that the people who come in may enjoy the light.
