AMPLIFIED 2015 | Deuteronomy 14:23 "You shall eat the tithe (tenth) of your grain, your new wine, your oil, and the firstborn of your herd and your flock before the LORD your God in the place where He chooses to establish His Name (Presence), so that you may learn to fear [and worship] the LORD your God [with awe-filled reverence and profound respect] always. |
Bible Question (short): Use Tithe on yourself? |
Question (full): I am trying to grasp the entire meaning of "Tithe". I know you have discussed this before, but I have some questions about Deut 14:22-26. This seems to say that you eat the tithe of your grain yourself in the place where the Lord has establised. Alternatively if this place is too far away, you sell your goods in exchange for money and use this money on yourself. Is this interpretation right? Geevee |
