Halakhah zu Bamidbar 18:24
כִּ֞י אֶת־מַעְשַׂ֣ר בְּנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל אֲשֶׁ֨ר יָרִ֤ימוּ לַֽיהוָה֙ תְּרוּמָ֔ה נָתַ֥תִּי לַלְוִיִּ֖ם לְנַחֲלָ֑ה עַל־כֵּן֙ אָמַ֣רְתִּי לָהֶ֔ם בְּתוֹךְ֙ בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל לֹ֥א יִנְחֲל֖וּ נַחֲלָֽה׃ (פ)
Denn den Zehnten der Kinder Israel, den sie dem Herrn als Gabe darbringen, gebe ich den Leviten zum Eigentum, deswegen sage ich zu ihnen: Unter den Kindern Israel sollen sie kein Eigentum besitzen.
Sefer HaChinukh
The commandment of the first tithe: That the Children of Israel were obligated to give one tenth part of the seed of the land to the Levites, as is is stated (Numbers 18:24), "For it is the tithes of the Children of Israel that they will give to the Lord that I give to the Levites as a gift." And it is stated in the Order of Eem Bechukotai (Leviticus 27:30), "And all of the tithe of the land, etc. it is for the Lord." And that is what is called the first tithe (maaser rishon).
