AI overview

A tithe is a one-tenth contribution, historically required and paid in agricultural goods or other goods, that was given to religious organizations or collected as a tax by the government. Today, tithes are typically voluntary and paid in cash or through modern methods, and they remain important in many countries as a formal way to support national churches through tax systems.

La dîme ou dime ou décime (du latin : decima, « dixième ») est une contribution variable, étymologiquement de 10 %, versée en nature ou en espèces, à une institution civile ou religieuse. Cette taxe, connue depuis l'Antiquité et mentionnée dans la Bible, est en usage dans le judaïsme, le christianisme et l' islam. Elle joue un rôle structurant dans la société féodale occidentale à partir du Haut Moyen Âge.
