Bible Question (short): ten percent once every three years? |
Question (full): You are right, it is ten percent of the increase. In The Deut 14:22 verse you quoted it says in 2 years out of three, the person who offered the tithe ate it. Only one year out of three did thay give it away. Then they gave it to the poor, widows, aliens, and some to the levites. Am I reading that right? Is there some other verse that says we are to give ten percent each year and all of it to the church or religious authorities? |
