The tithing of Abraham was an indicator of Gods work in him, for the patriarch to know and to relate to His personal nature
In working in Abraham to tithe as an act of knowing and relating to Him personally, God was also establishing the fundamental principle of Christian tithingthat it will be by the principle of knowing and relating to God personally
