Senum is a unit of silver equal to a senine of gold. A judge received “a senum of silver” for a day’s wages, equal to “a senine of gold,” under the law given (Alma 11:3). A senum of silver was also equal to “a measure of barley” and to a measure of every kind of grain (Alma 11:7).
The silver measures listed with the senum were “an amnor of silver, an ezrom of silver, and an onti of silver” (Alma 11:6). An amnor of silver was “as great as two senums” (Alma 11:11). An ezrom of silver was “as great as four senums” (Alma 11:12). A shiblon was half of a senum and was given for half a measure of barley (Alma 11:15).
