1 | How much should we give? | Bible general Archive 1 | gmsmith101 | 4968 | ||
We are still required to give a tithe under the new covenant. The law of tithing was not introduced as a law of Moses. This law has been in effect since Genesis. Of course, we know that Cain and Abel gave an offering. More specifically, Abraham gave Melchizedek a tenth (Heb. 7:2). This happened way before the Law was written. Since the Law that we have been released from is the ceremonial law, we are still require to tithe. | ||||||

Please note the person last posted 11/30/03 .... So they may not answer. My answer is There were three tithes, by the Law 1) the general tithe paid to the Levites (Num 18:21), who even tithed to the preists (vs 26). 2) the sacred meal tithe (Deu 14:22-27) 3) The tri-annual tithe to the poor (Deu 14:28-29) So that was 19 percent per year and 27 percent every three years, average 22 percent. Abraham paid a tithe to Melchizedek (Gen. 14:20; Heb. 7:6); and Jacob vowed unto the Lord to give a tenth (Gen. 28:22). These were given before the Law. What else in the OT do you want not to follow?
