∙ 13y agoThe system and structure of "tithing" is described in detail in the Torah, from which the first
five books of the Christian bible are translated. Judaism teaches tithing. As with so many other
teachings, each individual Jew is guided by his own conscience in his level of observance of the
commandments. Now, in the 21st century, many Jews do practice tithing, as well as less formal
systems of routine charitable giving.

Who are the people that pays a tithe?
The Israelites were commanded to give a tithe to the poor and a separate tithe to the Levites. The Levites were allotted no portion of the land itself, so they partook of the tithe that was given (Numbers ch.18). They served as Torah-scholars (Deuteronomy ch.33) and assisted in the Temple (but did not offer up the sacrifices, which was done only by the kohanim). The newborn of flocks were also tithed (Leviticus ch.27). Today, in the absence of the Holy Temple, Jews tithe their income for the poor.

No. Jews do not tithe because they have no Temple or priesthood. Tithes only went to Levites and priests. Rabbis were neither.
