Okay, so help me get it. Tithing was started before the Law. Where is
there an example of what to do with the tithing.
I don't recall ever saying the tithing was a part of the Law, in fact
the comments I have made concerning tithing were simply:
1) the NT doesn't state implicitly to tithe, but that is a lower number
than implied in the NT
and
2) under the Law (the main examples of what to do with the tithe) the
tithe wasn't just for the priests _and_ that the priests paid a tithe.
What in those two statements implies the Law started tithing?
Besides what comparison are _you_ referring to?

When all else fails read the directions:
Psalms 119:105 Thy word [is] a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my
path.
Proverbs 6:23 For the commandment [is] a lamp; and the law [is] light;
and reproofs of instruction [are] the way of life:
