Judaism does not discourage ownership. On the contrary, private property is a basic concept in the Torah. Unlike certain groups that demand 50% and even 100% tithing, Judaism makes no such demand. There are tithes to give, but these constitute 10% of one's earnings, and in Temple times constituted about 20%, some of which (maaser sheni) the owner himself could consume (Deuteronomy ch.14). Beyond these, one's property is inviolable in Judaism.

Why did early Judaism discourage ownership?
Look in Genesis and elsewhere, and it will become clear that Judaism never discouraged ownership. On the contrary, private property is a basic concept in the Torah. Unlike certain groups that demanded and still demand 50% and even 100% tithing, Judaism makes no such demand. There are tithes to give, but these today constitute 10% of one's earnings, and in Temple times constituted about 20%, some of which (maaser sheni) the owner himself could consume (Deuteronomy ch.14). Beyond these, one's property is inviolable in Judaism.
