are you meaning tithe? Under the Law of Moses, the Jews were required to pay a tithe (a tenth). there are several old testament scriptures on it, here is a new testament scripture, 1 Corinthians 16:1,2 Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given orders to the churches of Galatia, so you must do also: On the first day of the week let each one of you lay something aside, storing up as he may prosper, that there be no collections when I come.

You mean Tithe? That was the tax on the Jews to help support the temple and the hundreds of priests that rotated on monthly basis'.It means 10% of your income.Actually it ended up about 20% at the end of the year.

Giving priests 10% of the money you ever make for a lifetime of thorough brainwashing.

I think you mean tithe. It is giving 10% of your income to the church, as dictated by the bible.
