In the ancient kingdom of Israel, it was the role of the Levite to collect the tithe.

Role

Allowance to eat from Sacrifices

Just as the Levites (for example at Numbers chapter 18, verse 31) ate from the sacrifices of the people, the apostles were told to anticipate their sustenance from the good people of the community.

Matthew 10:9 Do not procure gold nor silver nor copper for your belts, 10 nor a bag for the way, nor two cloaks nor sandals, nor a staff. For the workman is worthy of his provisions.
