Siman - Shabbos Daf 2

• The melocho of הוצאה

From the opening Mishna’s eight cases of passing an object between the ba’al habayis standing in his reshus hayachid (private domain) and the poor person standing in reshus harabim (public domain) we learn:

a. One has only transgressed m’doraysa the melocho of hotza’ah (transferring) if he does the act of lifting (עקירה) the object from its state of rest in one domain as well as the act of placing it down (הנחה) in another domain.

b. The Rabbis forbid one from doing one of the acts of עקירה or הנחה lest one come to do both elements of the transfer.

• הכנסה (Bringing in)

Rav Ashi teaches that the Mishna’s usage of the term הוצאה (taking out) also refers to הכנסה (bringing in), since the Mishna includes cases of bringing in as examples of הוצאה.

The Gemara further clarifies that the Tanna refers to any removal of an object from its place as an act of “taking out.”

• Domains

Rava said the when the Tanna uses the word יציאות (transfers) in the Mishna he is referring to domains. Therefore, the Mishna is understood to mean that there are two domains where one is prohibited to commit four acts of transferring.
