Answer & Explanation

A donation of one-tenth of some amount.

Jews traditionally paid one-tenth of their income to the temple, and many Christian churches still follow the practice (or try to get their members to do so!). The first mention in the Bible is in Genesis 14, where Abraham gives a tenth of the spoils of a battle to the high priest in Jerusalem.
