This is a perpetual ordinance for your generations, but they shall not have any inheritance among the Israelites. 24 For I have given the Levites the tithes that the Israelites present as a contribution to the LORD as their inheritance. That is why I told them they shall have no inheritance among the Israelites.

They piled them in heaps. 7 In the third month, they began to lay the heaps, and they finished in the seventh month. 8 When Hezekiah and the officials came and saw the heaps, they praised the Lord and blessed His people Israel. 9 Hezekiah questioned the priests and Levites about the heaps. 10 Azariah, the chief priest from the family of Zadok, answered, 'Since the people began to bring their contributions to the house of the Lord, we have had enough to eat and plenty to spare, because the Lord has blessed His people; this great amount is what is left over.'

They also set apart what was holy for the Levites, and the Levites set apart what was holy for the descendants of Aaron.
