Nehemiah 10:37 - Forerunner Commentary

Nehemiah 10:37

35 And we made ordinances ^ato bring the firstfruits of our ground and the firstfruits of all fruit of all trees, year by year, to the house of the Lord;

36 to bring the ^afirstborn of our sons and our cattle, as it is written in the Law, and the firstborn of our herds and our flocks, to the house of our God, to the priests who minister in the house of our God;

37 ^ato bring the firstfruits of our dough, our offerings, the fruit from all kinds of trees, the new wine and oil, to the priests, to the storerooms of the¹ house of our God; and to bring ^bthe tithes of our land to the Levites, for the Levites should receive the tithes in all our farming communities.

38 And the priest, the descendant of Aaron, shall be with the Levites ^awhen the Levites receive tithes; and the Levites shall bring up a tenth of the tithes to the house of our God, to ^bthe rooms of the storehouse.

39 For the children of Israel and the children of Levi ^ashall bring the offering of the grain, of the new wine and the oil, to the storerooms where the articles of the sanctuary are, where the priests who minister and the gatekeepers ^band the singers are; and we will not ^cneglect the house of our God.
