Eipä ihme, että Jumala sääti työtä tekevien ja palkkaa saavien velvollisuudeksi maksaa kymmenykset seurakunnalleen. Silti, jo pelkät uhrimenokulut (tai -tuotot nykyisin) peittävät seurakunnan papiston ja rukoushuoneen kulut, selviää Toorasta, eli kymmenykset ovat lisänä eli vararahastona pahoja päiviä varten, jolloin puutteenalaisia uskoivaisia ruokitaan temppelirahastosta tai jälleenrakennetaan tai korjataan tuhoutuneita pyhäkköjä. Ohessa on laskelma, miten pelkkä uhraustoiminta tuottaisi nykyrahaan muutettuna (englannin kielellä):
ONE SUGGESTION HOW THE SYNAGOGUES COPE WITH PAYMENTS TODAY
After the Temple of Jerusalem was destroyed (70 AD) there has been no animal sacrifices in Jewish religion. However, they can replace their animal offerings by financial offerings to the Jewish Rabbis, who teach them their religion and keep the Synagogues spiritual services going on. So there can be a symbolic “Temple” (a separated area in front of the Synagogue service room, where only Rabbis can go to read the Torah and pray and the highest Rabbi also goes behind to curtain to put the financial offering in front of God and the Scripture scrolls and there a symbolic bread and wine and the Ten Commandment tables. Then the money after blessing is transferred to the bank and used to repairs of the Synagogue, salaries of the Synagogue staff and for teaching and charity work in that community.
36. Every day shall you offer the bull (=10000 dollars) of sin-offering for atonement: and you shall cleanse the altar, when you make atonement for it; and you shall anoint it, to sanctify it.
37. Seven days you shall make atonement for the altar, and sanctify it: and the altar shall be most holy; whatever touches the altar shall be holy.
38. "Now this is that which you shall offer on the altar: two lambs (=2x250 dollars) a year old day by day continually.
39. The one lamb (250 dollars) you shall offer in the morning; and the other lamb (250 dollars) you shall offer at evening:
40. and with the one lamb (250 dollars) a tenth part of an efah (3,5 liters = 10 dollars) of fine flour mixed with the fourth part of a hin of beaten oil, and the fourth part of a hin (1,25 liters = kosher Pesah wine about 40 dollars) of wine for a drink-offering. [This symbolizes the Passover meal also the Communion].
41. The other lamb (250 dollars) you shall offer at evening, and shall do to it according to the meal-offering of the morning, and according to its drink-offering, for a sweet savor, an offering made by fire to the LORD.
42. It shall be a continual burnt offering throughout your generations at the door of the tent of meeting before the LORD, where I will meet with you, to speak there to you.
43. There I will meet with the children of Yisra'el; and the place shall be sanctified by my glory.
44. I will sanctify the tent of meeting and the altar: Aharon also and his sons I will sanctify, to minister to me in the Kohen’s office.
45. I will dwell among the children of Yisra'el, and will be their God.
So the congregation of a Synagogue must be so large, that they can offer by tithes and offerings yearly
10000 dollars (bull per year) 365 days x 500 dollars (2 lambs daily) 365 days x 100dollars (two times per day drink and food offerings cost), so the total sum is:
10000 182500 36500 = 229000 dollars
If the salary of the highest Rabbi is yearly 60000 dollars and he has two other helpers 2 x 30000 dollars, will 109000 dollars be left to be used in repairs, dishes, oils, charity, cleaning, electricity, candles, celebration meals and robes etc. so about 300 dollars per day for other costs! If the congregation has 1000 salary getting members, should every member pay yearly 229 dollars to meet the costs or around 0,62 dollars daily. If there a two thousand members the membership payment is only 114,5 dollars per year. Those who are children or unemployed or poor are freed to pay membership offerings to the Synagogue. The bigger the congregation is, more money would be left for education, social- and charity work!

jumala rahaa tarvitsee;)
Totuuden nimissä jumalaa ei ole.
>> Hullu sanoo sydämessään: "Ei ole Jumalaa.". (Psalmi 14:1)
nyt pelättiin ukkostakin jumalan toimena,ajat muuttuu.
Jumalaa ei ole
"Teppelirahastoon" on aivan eri asia, kuin Synagogan ylläpitoon tarvittavat rahat. Teppelile maksoivat kymmenyksiä, ne jotka olivat JHWH:n vieraina Ihanassa Immanuelin maassa, - ja heidän kuului maksaa veroa, - eikä suinkaan Jumalan lasten - joiden täydet kymmenykset jo Aabraham maksoi lastensakin puolesta Melkisedekille, (Jeru) Saalemin katoamattomalle kuningaspapille: 1 Moos.14:18-20. Se mitä maksellaan luvatun maan rajojen ulkopuolella, ei kuulu lainkaan JHWH:n asetttaman "kymmenysjärjestelmän" piiriin.
vähät välittää palvomisistaan;)
Malakia 3:
10. Tuokaa täydet kymmenykset varastohuoneeseen, että minun huoneessani olisi ravintoa, ja siten koetelkaa minua, sanoo Herra Sebaot: totisesti minä avaan teille taivaan akkunat ja vuodatan teille siunausta ylenpalttisesti.
11. Ja minä karkoitan nuhtelullani teiltä syöjäsirkat turmelemasta teidän maanne hedelmää, eikä teidän viiniköynnöksenne kedolla ole hedelmätön, sanoo Herra Sebaot.
12. Ja teidän onneanne kiittävät kaikki pakanat, sillä te tulette olemaan ihasteltu maa, sanoo Herra Sebaot.
Asettiin lain orjille, eikä suinkaan Jumalan lapsille - jotka ovat niistä vapaat - koska heidän isänsä - uskon ja lupauksen liiton kantaisä Aabraham maksoi lastensa täydet kymmenykset, - jotka myös Melkisedek, Jumlaan Korkeimman, taivaan ja maan luojan pappi otti vastaan häneltä, - siunaten hänet, - ja kaikki hänen lapsensa "hänessä" - siis ne jotka seuraavat saman uskon jälkiä.
Edes asuttaessaan maata, niin kuinka voitaisiin olettaa heidän maksavan mitään Herralle - ollessaan siroteltuinana kansojen sekaan? Synagogissaan he toki keräävät kokoavat varoja itselleen ja uususkontojensa harjoittamiseen, - kutsuen niitä rabbien hyväksymäksi: "juutalaisuudeksi".
Every DAY should be a bull offered for sins (365 x 10000 dollars) 3650000 dollars so the sinoffering for 1000 paying members will be 3650 dollars that means each mans yearly salary!) So the sum will be previous 229000 dollars missing 3640000 dollars = 3869000 dollars. So each of money-receiving members really do pay the tithes 3869 dollars of their yearly salary!
mentioned in the Torah (Ex. 18) to rule groups starting from the biggest and under the thousand group were a network of control (very efficient!!):
25. Moshe chose able men out of all Yisra'el, and made them heads over the people, rulers of THOUSANDs, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens.
Isn't todays networking business looking similar like this?
voidaan ottaa vain Israelin maan sadosta (terumah, ma'aser), on myös määräys(derabanan) antaa tietty osa tuloista hyväntekeväisyyteen.
Seurakuntien jäsenet maksavat mitä seurakunnan ylläpito vaatii, jäsenyys on vapaaehtoista eikä maksuihin vaikuta muinaiset härkien tai lampaiden hinnat. Rabbi on muuten opettaja EI pappi, ja mikä mahtaa olla "highest rabbi "? Joku sekoittaa synagogan ja temppelin.
Seurakuntien maksut menevät pankkitilille josta taloushallinnosta vastaavat käyttävät ne menoihin, ei kukaan tuo rahoja rabbille .Muinaista temppeliä ylläpiti koko juutalainen kansa yhdessä, nyt jokainen seurakunta on täysin itsenäinen ja vastaa omista kuluistaan.
On irti laista ja sen kontekstista. Poissa siitä maasta, jossa lakia tuli noudattaa - jotta maata saisi myös pysyvästi asuttaa. Teidämme että tämä ei onnistunut, ja siksi nyt: "aikojen lopulla", Jumala tekeekin kaiken toisin, - kääntäen kansansa kohtolon, - Uuden ja permmen liiton perustalle: Jer.31:31-34.
