They were commanded by God to provide for them. Many of the 24 things they provided are listed in Numbers ch.18 and Deuteronomy ch.18. They include the terumah, terumat-maaser, and certain offerings which the kohanim (priests) ate such as the sin offering and guilt offering.

What does tithing have in common with the levites?

The Levites were one of the tribes of Israel. Israel's priests were chosen from this tribe. They are referred to as the Levitical priests. Israel was a theocracy which means its government was run by its religious leaders (Levites/Levitcal priests).Under the Mosaic Law (Law of Moses) the other eleven tribes were commanded to pay tithes to the Levites. In turn, the Levitical priests were responsible for offering the tithes to the Lord as a form of ceremonial/religious worship.Your Tithe ExpertTheTithingHoax.com
