Rabbinically Forbidden Activities on Shabbat
Laws of the Calendar
Sources
A
[Regarding the Sabbath,] the Torah [Exodus 23:12] states: "[On the seventh day,] you shall cease activity." [This implies] ceasing [even the performance of certain] activities that are not [included in the categories of the forbidden] labors.
[The Torah left the definition of the scope of this commandment to] the Sages, [who] forbade many activities as
sh'vut
. Some activities are forbidden because they resemble the forbidden labors, while other activities are forbidden lest they lead one to commit a forbidden labor. These [activities] include the following:
