Aliya Summary: The "Second Tithe," which must be consumed by its
owners in Jerusalem, is briefly mentioned -- as well as the rules for
redeeming this tithe if it is too burdensome to transport to Jerusalem.
Also discussed is the animal tithe -- every tenth animal is offered as a
sacrifice, and the meat consumed by its owners. With this we conclude
the Book of Leviticus.
The tithe of the animals (cows,
goats, sheep) are to be separated by counting every tenth one regardless
of the quality of the animal. Violation of this rule results in both
animals being considered holy, which begs the question of why anyone
would attempt to redeem.
