And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is the LORD’S; it is holy unto the LORD.

Siftei Chakhamim
Second tithe. Because here it is written is written “sacred to Hashem,” and regarding second tithe it is written (Devarim 26:13) “I have divested my estate of sacred material.” Thus we derive one from the other [through the common words] “sacred,” “sacred.” This excludes first tithe which is completely non-sacred as it is written (Bamidbar 18:27), “Your terumah-gift will be considered the same as grain from the granary.”
