God Provides for His Ministers

Commentators explain that God established a clear command for the priests to be supported through the offerings. This wasn't a suggestion but a divine ordinance. John Gill connects this to the New Testament, noting that just as God provided for the Levitical priests, Christ has ordained that 'those who preach the Gospel should live of the Gospel' (1 Cor. 9:14).
