Abraham Pays the Tithe

Gen 14:18-20   And blessed be God Most High, Who has delivered your enemies into your hand.”  And he(Abraham) gave him(Melchizedek) a tithe of all. (NKJV)

Jacob vows to pay the Tithe (the tenth)

Gen 28:20-2220 Then Jacob made a vow, saying, “If God will be with me, and keep me in this way that I am going, and give me bread to eat and clothing to put on, 21 so that I come back to my father’s house in peace, then the LORD shall be my God. 22 And this stone which I have set as a pillar shall be God’s house, and of all that You give me I will surely give a tenth(tithe) to You.” (NKJV)

God admonishes His people to stop robbing Him!

He promises to rebuke the devourer if they obey his command.  Obedience to God is first and necessary before any other human obligations.

Mal 3:8-11   8 Will a man rob God? Yet you have robbed Me!  But you say, ‘ In what way have we robbed You?’ In tithes and offerings.9 You are cursed with a curse, For you have robbed Me, Even this whole nation.  Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, That there may be food in My house, And try Me now in this,” Says the LORD of hosts, “ If I will not open for you the windows of heaven  And pour out for you such blessing That there will not be room enough to receive it.  11 “ And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, So that he will not destroy the fruit of your ground, Nor shall the vine fail to bear fruit for you in the field,” Says the LORD of hosts; 12 And all nations will call you blessed, For you will be a delightful land,” Says the LORD of hosts.(NKJV)

3. Jesus affirms the payment of the Tithe.

He encourages us to pay the tithe while not neglecting also the weightier matters of love, justice, mercy, and faith: Matt 23:23“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law: justice and mercy and faith. These you ought to have done, without leaving the others undone.NKJV
