The poor tithe is discussed in the [[Book of Deuteronomy]]:

:At the end of three years you shall bring forth all the tithe of your produce in that year, and shall lay it up inside your gates;. And the Levite, because he has no part nor inheritance with you, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow, who are inside your gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do.” ({{Bibleverse|Deuteronomy|14:28|HE}})

:When you have finished tithing all the tithes of your produce in the third year, the year of the tithe, you shall give them to the Levite, the stranger, the orphan, and the widow, so that they can eat to satiety in your cities. ({{Bibleverse|Deuteronomy|26:12|HE}})
