Abraham never tithed on his own personal property or livestock. Jacob wouldn’t tithe until God blessed him first. Only food products from the land were tithable. Money was never a titheable commodity. Christian converts were never asked to tithe anything to the Church. Tithing in the Church first appears centuries after completion of The Bible.
