About 21 quarts; 22 liters

“three measures.” The Hebrew is three seahs, which was about 21 quarts, over 5 gallons (about 22 liters). See commentary on Genesis 18:5.

“loaves.” The Hebrew word is not technically “bread” but refers to the round “loaf” of bread that is essentially like a pancake today; round and flat.
