Nehemiah 10:38 Meaning and Commentary

Nehemiah 10:38

And the priest the son of Aaron shall be with the Levites,
when the Levites take tithes
There was always to be a priest with the Levites at such times, to take notice what quantity they received, that they might not be under any temptation, or lie under any suspicion of defrauding the priests of their due, who were to have a part in the tithes, as follows:

and the Levites shall bring up the tithe of the tithes unto the house
of our God, to the chambers, into the treasure house:
which were in the court of the priests for that purpose; for out of the tithes of the Levites there was another tithe or tenth part taken, and given to the priests, see ( Numbers 18:26-30 ) .
