>> What tithing WAS intended for...

1. To support the Levites, singers and porters for the work they did in the Temple -

"And, behold, I have given the children of Levi all the tenth in Israel for an inheritance, for their service which they serve, even the service of the tabernacle of the congregation." Numbers 18:21, (and Nehemiah Chapter 13)

2. To support the poor and the needy in Israel, The Promise Land -


"And the Levite, (because he hath no part nor inheritance with thee,) and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, which are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the Lord thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hand which thou doest." - Deuteronomy 14:29
