Yesterday, we were studying Ezra 2-3 about the alter. It mentioned freewill offerings, but what about the tithe. Where was it going?

John,
Here are some passages which establish the tithe in the OT. I am one who believes that the tithe was abrogated when Christ, the Messiah, appeared since the tithe was not inherent in the moral law. In the NT, there is no mandate to give a 10th (tithe), but rather, giving is to be liberal and with joy, Acts 4:32-37; 11:29; 20:35; Rom 12:13; 1Cor 16:2; 2Cor 6:9-12; 8:11,12,13-15; 9:6,7; 1Tim 6:17-19.
Mosaic laws instituting the tithe: Lev 27:30-33; Num 18:21-24; Deut 12:6-7,17-19; 14:22-29; 26:12-15
Customs relating to the tithe: Neh 10:37-38; Amos 4:4; Heb 7:5-9
A tithe for the priests: Num 18:26; Neh 10:38; 13:12,13
simul iustus et peccator
