Contributions, Tithes and Storehouses

"Now when all this was finished, all Israel that were present went out to the cities of Judah, and brake the images in pieces, and cut down the groves, and threw down the high places and the altars."

"As soon as the commandment came abroad, the children of Israel brought in abundance the firstfruits of corn, wine, and oil, and honey, and of all the increase of the field; and the tithe of all things brought they in abundantly." "In the third month they began to lay the foundation of the heaps, and finished them in the seventh month."

Azariah the chief priest: "Since the people began to bring the offerings into the house of the LORD, we have had enough to eat, and have left plenty." Chambers are prepared; Kore the gatekeeper distributes, with helpers in the priests' cities, to all "by courses, as well to the great as to the small," including "their little ones, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters." "And in every work… he did it with all his heart, and prospered."

Storehouses

Royal storage jars stamped lmlk ("belonging to the king") from Hezekiah's time are found across Judah, and storehouses with rows of pillars are known at Beersheba and Lachish. They show an administered economy; they are not evidence of this tithe collection specifically.
