Levi the_‹one› tithes receiving
The name Levi refers to the descendants of Levi who were priests and collected tithes. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make it explicit that Levi stands for the descendants of Levi. Alternate translation: [Levi’s descendants, the ones collecting tithes]

The author refers to how Abraham paid a tithe to Melchizedek, an event the author has already mentioned (See: [7:4](../07/04.md)). If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [had paid a tithe to Melchizedek through Abraham after Abraham defeated his enemies]
7:1-28 Hebrews 7 develops the main topic introduced in 5:1-10: Jesus’ appointment as a high priest in the order of Melchizedek.
