    Hankster assumes that the mere fact of Abram giving Melchisedek a tithe establishes it as a law 800 years before Sinai. This is an unwarranted assumption for two reasons:
    1. There is no record of God establiishing tithing as a law before Sinai; none.The mere fact that Abram gave Melchisedek a tithe does not endorse an as yet uncodified law giving it grandfather rights at some formal declaration of law in the future.
    21. Abram gave Melchisedek a tithe of the spoils of war. Under the formal codification of the Law of Tithing, such offerings were rejected by God as a tithe and never received by Him in the life of the Old Covenant. (See Numbers 33, et al)
