It may help to know if you consider yourself the equivalent of a priest, or a Levite. I understand that the Levites tithed to the priests but the priests in the OT didn’t tithe to anybody, did they?

So, if you consider yourself typified by the OT Priest, what would be the scriptural basis for tithing to the ministry?

And we do know that the singers in the OT received tithes from the Levitical tithe, so do you also tithe to your choir members?

I’d really appreciate some information about this.

The title of the tithe was offered as a heave offering to the Lord. So it makes sense to me. 1Cor.9 uses the tithing chamber as an example of ministerial support. Musicians & singers who get offerings are from the tithe yes.
