Scripture Verses (& NOTES) in ABOVE video:
"One-tenth of what comes from the land, whether grain or fruit, is holy & belongs to the LORD. (Leviticus 27:30 GW) NOT MONEY!

Every tenth head of cattle or sheep that you counted is holy & belongs to the LORD. (Leviticus 27:32 GW) EVERY 10TH, NOT "THE BEST" OR the worst

You may not pick & choose between good & bad animals, & you may not substitute one for another. But if you do exchange one animal for another, then both the original animal & its substitute will be considered holy & cannot be bought back." Leviticus 27:33 (NLT) AGAIN - No Picking & Choosing - Just Every TENTH Animal

Numbers 18:24-32 Yahweh explains that a tenth *of the tenth* given to the Levites (the "best part" of what they received from the Israelites) is to be offered to Yahweh. Unlike livestock (which is to be offered randomly by "every tenth animal"), the priests are to offer the "first fruits" as the farmer offers HIS best "first fruits" & keeps the rest.

Deuteronomy 12 is about tithing as pertains to feasts & that there will be ONE PLACE for this. Yahweh instructs His people to ENJOY the work or their hands and, "Don't forget to take care of the Levites as long as you live in your land." (Deuteronomy 12:19 GW) Then, in verse 21, He says, "If the place the LORD your God chooses to put his name is too far away from you, you may slaughter an animal from the herds or flocks that the LORD has given you. Eat as much as you want in your city. I have commanded you to do this." Is this a contradiction? Of course not! He is merely showing us His leniency.

"Set aside a tithe - a tenth of all that your fields produce each year. Then go to the one place where the LORD your God has chosen to be worshiped; & there in His presence eat the tithes of your grain, wine, & olive oil, & the first-born of your cattle & sheep. Do this so that you may learn to honor the LORD your God always. If the place of worship is too far from your home for you to carry there the tithe of the produce that the LORD has blessed you with, then do this: Sell your produce & take the money with you to the one place of worship. Spend it on whatever you want - beef, lamb, wine, beer - & there, in the presence of the LORD your God, you & your families are to eat & enjoy yourselves. "Do not neglect the Levites who live in your towns; they have no property of their own. (Deuteronomy 14:22-27 GNB)

"Every third year give the tithe - a tenth of your crops - to the Levites, the foreigners, the orphans, & the widows, so that in every community they will have all they need to eat. When you have done this, say to the LORD, 'None of the sacred tithe is left in my house; I have given it to the Levites, the foreigners, the orphans, & the widows, as you commanded me to do. I have not disobeyed or forgotten any of your commands concerning the tithe. I have not eaten any of it when I was mourning; I have not taken any of it out of my house when I was ritually unclean; & I have not given any of it as an offering for the dead. I have obeyed you, O LORD; I have done everything you commanded concerning the tithe.(Deuteronomy 26:12-14 GNB)
