Leviticus 27:31 - 5%
Just checking to see if I read this correctly. Is it saying that if someone used a part of their tithe, then they would pay an additional 5% to make up for it?

My question has nothing to do with some trying to teach the extra 5% (half-shekel), which we have discussed in the past.

Just wanted the context of this particular verse. "Ought" means "part" in Hebrew.

It means to buy the crop instead of bringing it in. He would buy it plus 5% above it's value

27:30, 31 For a person living a distance from the sanctuary, it may have been easier to redeem the tithes of his crops than to bring the crops to the sanctuary.

But why? Everything always seems to be laid out for a reasonable purpose, so why?
