Numbers 18:24-28
Verse 28. Thus ye also shall offer a heave-offering] As the Levites had the tithe of the whole land, they themselves were obliged to give the tithe of this tithe to the priests, so that this considerably lessened their revenue. And this tithe or tenth they were obliged to select from the best part of the substance they had received, Nu 18:29, &c. A portion of all must be given to God, as an evidence of his goodness, and their dependence on him. See Clarke on Nu 20:28
