Answer:

local church

A tithe is a portion (10%) of your income given as an offering to your local church. (Fun fact: The word tithe literally means tenth in Hebrew.) Because the custom of tithing is biblical, many Christians and Jews practice it as part of their faith.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first tithe is the giving of one-tenth of agricultural produce (after the giving of the standard terumah) to the Levite (or Aaronic priests). Historically, the first tithe was given to the Levites during the First Temple period.
