'Tithes' in the Bible

And those of the descendants of Levi who receive the priesthood are authorized by the Law to take tithes from the people, that is, from their brethren, though these have sprung from Abraham.

But, in this instance, one who does not trace his origin from them takes tithes from Abraham, and pronounces a blessing on him to whom the promises belong.

Moreover here frail mortal men receive tithes: there one receives them about whom there is evidence that he is alive.
