Mal Malachi, chapter Book of Malachi, chapter 3
Should people defraud God? Yet you are defrauding me!3:8. “Defraud”: this is closer to the original meaning than rob. It also continues the theme of the people being descendants of the deceiver Jacob, who defrauded his brother out of his birthright.
But you ask, “How have we defrauded you?”
In tithes and offerings.
