Hello Subgenious,

In the IV Bible it says:
37 And he lifted up his voice, and he blessed Abram, being the high priest, and the keeper of the storehouse of God;
38 Him whom God had appointed to receive tithes for the poor.

This seems to indicate to me that tithes were somehow to be used for the poor.
May all your naps be joyous occasions.
