No problem. I read the Penatuch(while reading through the Bible) in May/July of this year and the Tithe Scriptures really stuck out to me. The church I was going to teaches the Tithe amongst other teachings on giving, and I was troubled about what was being taught after reading The Word. So I started searching and found that site. It really blessed me.When people understand the the Mosaic Tithe was God's system of welfare for the Nation of Isreal, it really gives it some context. How GREAT IS OUR GOD!The following list includes every Bible tithe text.Genesis 14:17-20 Amos 4:2-6Genesis 28:20-22 2 Chronicles 31:1-12Leviticus 27:30-34 Nehemiah 10:37-38; 12:44; 13:5, 12Numbers 18:19-28 Malachi 3:7-10Deuteronomy 12:1-19 Matthew 23:23; Luke 11:42Deuteronomy 14:22-29 Luke 18:9-14Deuteronomy 26:12-13 Hebrews 7:1-191 Samuel 8:14-17Tithes are always only foodLev. 27:30, 32; Numb. 18:27, 28; Deut. 12:17; 14:22, 23; 26:12; 2 Chron. 31:5,6; Neh. 10:37; 13:5; Mal. 3:10; Matt. 23:23; Luke 11: 42

There's a lot of richness that can be dug out of the old books. There's so many OT references in the NT that you just don't get the full picture. Be careful not to confuse the "Old Testament" with the "Old Covenant(Moses' LAW)". I am just as sickened by people trying to tell people to tithe and take Sabbath as the next guy... but that does not mean throw out the baby with the defiled bathwater.
What's really awesome.... is that EVERYTHING tithed came forth from SEED ! Who IS the seed ? Jesus! It is as all scripture in the Old Covenant a picture of a reality that came in Jesus! As HE said it all speaks OF Him.gamma-light
