Redemption of the Tithe

27:30 “ ‘Any tithe37 of the land, from the grain of the land or from the fruit of the trees, belongs to the Lord; it is holy to the Lord. 27:31 If a man redeems38 part of his tithe, however, he must add one fifth to it.39 27:32 All the tithe of herd or flock, everything which passes under the rod, the tenth one will be holy to the Lord.40 27:33 The owner41 must not examine the animals to distinguish between good and bad, and he must not exchange it. If, however, he does exchange it,42 both the original animal43 and its substitute will be holy.44 It must not be redeemed.’ ”
