שְׁמוּאֵל אִיקְּלַע לְבֵי אֲבִי תוֹרָן. אֲתָא הָהוּא גּוֹי אַדְלֵיק שְׁרָגָא. אַהְדְּרִינְהוּ שְׁמוּאֵל לְאַפֵּיהּ. כֵּיוָן דַּחֲזָא דְּאַיְיתִי שְׁטָר וְקָא קָרֵי, אָמַר: אַדַּעְתָּא דְנַפְשֵׁיהּ הוּא דְּאַדְלֵיק. אַהְדְּרִינְהוּ אִיהוּ לְאַפֵּיהּ גַּבֵּי שְׁרָגָא.

The Gemara relates that **Shmuel happened** to come **to the house of Avin Toran. A certain gentile came** and **kindled a lamp.

He turned his face back toward the lamp.**

מַתְנִי׳ **כׇּל הַכֵּלִים** נִיטָּלִין בַּשַּׁבָּת, וְדַלְתוֹתֵיהֶן עִמָּהֶן, אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁנִּתְפָּרְקוּ בַּשַּׁבָּת. שֶׁאֵינָן דּוֹמִין לְדַלְתוֹת הַבַּיִת, לְפִי שֶׁאֵינָן מִן הַמּוּכָן.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**MISHNA:** **All vessels may be moved on Shabbat, and their doors,** which are part of these vessels, along **with them, even if they were dismantled on Shabbat, as** the doors of these vessels **are unlike the doors of the house.** It is prohibited to make use of the doors of a house on Shabbat, even if they were removed from the entrance, **because they are not prepared** from before Shabbat.

נוֹטֵל אָדָם קוּרְנָס — לְפַצֵּעַ בּוֹ אֶת הָאֱגוֹזִין, קַרְדּוֹם — לַחְתּוֹךְ בּוֹ אֶת הַדְּבֵילָה. מְגֵירָה — לָגוֹר בָּהּ אֶת הַגְּבִינָה. מַגְרֵיפָה — לִגְרוֹף בָּהּ אֶת הַגְּרוֹגְרוֹת.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
Likewise **a person may move a mallet,** which is generally used for labor prohibited on Shabbat, **to crack nuts with it.** Likewise, one may move **an axe,** a tool generally used to chop wood, **to cut a cake of figs with it.** So too, one may move **a saw to cut cheese with it.** Similarly, one may move **a spade to scoop dried figs with it.**


###### Shabbat 122b:6
[Shabbat 122b:6](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/122b:6)

אֶת הָרַחַת וְאֶת הַמַּלְגֵּז — לָתֵת עָלָיו לְקָטָן. אֶת הַכּוּשׁ וְאֶת הַכַּרְכֵּר — לִתְחוֹב בּוֹ. מַחַט שֶׁל יָד — לִיטּוֹל בּוֹ אֶת הַקּוֹץ. וְשֶׁל סַקָּאִים — לִפְתּוֹחַ בּוֹ אֶת הַדֶּלֶת.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
One may also move **a winnowing shovel and a pitchfork,** both of which are designated for use with crops in a barn, **to place** food **on it for a child.** One is likewise permitted to take a **reed or a shuttle** from a spindle, ordinarily used for weaving, in order **to insert it** into food like a fork. One is permitted to move an ordinary **hand needle** used for sewing clothes **to extract a thorn with it, and** one may move **a sack maker’s** needle **to open the door with it.**

**גְּמָ׳** כׇּל הַכֵּלִים נִיטָּלִין, וְאַף עַל פִּי שֶׁנִּתְפָּרְקוּ בַּשַּׁבָּת, וְלָא מִיבַּעְיָא בְּחוֹל.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**GEMARA:** The mishna states: **All vessels may be moved, and even if they were dismantled on Shabbat.** Should we learn from here that there is only a question with regard to vessels which were dismantled on Shabbat, **and** that **there is no need** to mention vessels detached **during the week,** as it is certainly permitted to carry them on Shabbat?


###### Shabbat 122b:8
[Shabbat 122b:8](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/122b:8)

אַדְּרַבָּה, בַּשַּׁבָּת מוּכָנִין עַל גַּבֵּי אֲבִיהֶן, בַּחוֹל אֵין מוּכָנִין עַל גַּבֵּי אֲבִיהֶן!

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**On the contrary,** if they were dismantled **on Shabbat** it can be said that the parts of the vessel **were prepared** for use at the onset of Shabbat, **due to** their being attached to **their original** vessels from which they were removed. However, if they were detached **during the week,** at the onset of Shabbat they would **not** have been **prepared** for use, **due to** their being detached from **their original** vessels from which they were removed.

אָמַר אַבָּיֵי, הָכִי קָאָמַר: כׇּל הַכֵּלִים נִיטָּלִין בַּשַּׁבָּת וְדַלְתוֹתֵיהֶן עִמָּהֶן. אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁנִּתְפָּרְקוּ בַּחוֹל — נִיטָּלִין בַּשַּׁבָּת.

###### Shabbat 122b:10
[Shabbat 122b:10](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/122b:10)

תָּנוּ רַבָּנַן: דֶּלֶת שֶׁל שִׁידָּה וְשֶׁל תֵּיבָה וְשֶׁל מִגְדָּל — נוֹטְלִין אֲבָל לֹא מַחֲזִירִין. וְשֶׁל לוּל שֶׁל תַּרְנְגוֹלִים — לֹא נוֹטְלִין וְלֹא מַחֲזִירִין.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**The Sages taught:** With regard to **the door of a chest,** or **of a box,** or **of a closet, one may remove** them from their hinges on Shabbat, **but he may not restore** them to their original places. **And** with regard to the door of **a chicken coop,** one may neither **move** it **nor restore** it to its place.


###### Shabbat 122b:11
[Shabbat 122b:11](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/122b:11)

בִּשְׁלָמָא שֶׁל לוּל שֶׁל תַּרְנְגוֹלִים, קָסָבַר: כֵּיוָן דִּמְחַבְּרִי בְּאַרְעָא — יֵשׁ בִּנְיָן בְּקַרְקַע יֵשׁ סְתִירָה בְּקַרְקַע. אֶלָּא שֶׁל שִׁידָּה וְשֶׁל תֵּיבָה וְשֶׁל מִגְדָּל, מַאי קָסָבַר?

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Granted,** in the case of **a chicken coop** the *tanna* **holds: Since** the coop **is attached to the ground, there is** a prohibition against **building on the ground** and **there is** a prohibition against **dismantling on the ground.** Consequently, when one dismantles or restores the door he has performed the prohibited labor of building. **However,** in the case of the door **of a chest,** or **a box,** or **a closet, what does he hold?**


###### Shabbat 122b:12
[Shabbat 122b:12](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/122b:12)

אִי קָסָבַר יֵשׁ בִּנְיָן בְּכֵלִים — יֵשׁ סְתִירָה בְּכֵלִים, וְאִי אֵין סְתִירָה בְּכֵלִים — אֵין בִּנְיָן בְּכֵלִים?

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**If** the tanna **holds** that **there is** a prohibition against **building with regard to vessels,** then **there is** also a prohibition against **dismantling with regard to vessels** and it should be prohibited to remove the door. **And if there is no** prohibition against **dismantling with regard to vessels** and it is permitted to remove the door, then there should also be **no** prohibition against **building with regard to vessels.** Why, then, is it prohibited to restore a door to its original place?


###### Shabbat 122b:13
[Shabbat 122b:13](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/122b:13)

אָמַר אַבָּיֵי: לְעוֹלָם קָסָבַר יֵשׁ בִּנְיָן בְּכֵלִים וְיֵשׁ סְתִירָה בְּכֵלִים, וְשֶׁנִּיטְּלוּ קָאָמַר.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Abaye said: Actually, he holds that there is** a prohibition against **building with regard to vessels and there is** also a prohibition against **dismantling with regard to vessels.** To resolve the difficulty, emend the text. Rather than saying: One may remove them, **it is saying:** The doors of a chest, or a box, or a closet **that were** already **removed** may not be restored.


###### Shabbat 122b:14
[Shabbat 122b:14](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/122b:14)

אֲמַר לֵיהּ רָבָא: [שְׁתֵּי תְּשׁוּבוֹת בַּדָּבָר]. חֲדָא, דְּ״נִיטָּלִין״ קָתָנֵי, וְעוֹד: מַאי ״אֲבָל לֹא מַחֲזִירִין״? אֶלָּא אָמַר רָבָא, קָסָבַר: אֵין בִּנְיָן בְּכֵלִים וְאֵין סְתִירָה בְּכֵלִים — וּגְזֵירָה שֶׁמָּא יִתְקַע.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Rava said to him:** There are **two** possible **responses** with which your statement can be rejected. **One** is that **it is taught** in the *baraita*: **One may remove** them, *ab initio*. **And furthermore, what is** the meaning of: **But one may not restore** them? According to your emendation, what is the meaning of the word, but, in this context? **Rather, Rava said:** The *tanna* holds that **there is no** prohibition against **building with regard to vessels and there is no** prohibition against **dismantling with regard to vessels, and** so why did the *tanna* rule one may not restore the door? It is due to **a decree lest one fix** it firmly in place in the manner of a full-fledged prohibited labor, completing the production process of a vessel.


###### Shabbat 122b:15
[Shabbat 122b:15](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/122b:15)

נוֹטֵל אָדָם קוּרְנָס כּוּ׳. אָמַר רַב יְהוּדָה: קוּרְנָס שֶׁל אֱגוֹזִין לְפַצֵּעַ בּוֹ אֶת הָאֱגוֹזִין, אֲבָל שֶׁל נַפָּחִין — לֹא.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The mishna states: **A person may take a mallet** on Shabbat in order to crack nuts with it. **Rav Yehuda said:** The type of hammer in this case is **a hammer** designated **for nuts to crack nuts with it, but blacksmiths’** hammers, **no,** they may not be used.


###### Shabbat 122b:16
[Shabbat 122b:16](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/122b:16)

קָסָבַר דָּבָר שֶׁמְּלַאכְתּוֹ לְאִיסּוּר, אֲפִילּוּ לְצוֹרֶךְ גּוּפוֹ — אָסוּר.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
That *tanna* **holds** that using **an object whose** primary **function** is **for** a **prohibited** use, **even for the purpose** of utilizing the object **itself** to perform a permitted action, is **prohibited.**


###### Shabbat 122b:17
[Shabbat 122b:17](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/122b:17)

אֲמַר לֵיהּ רַבָּה: אֶלָּא מֵעַתָּה, סֵיפָא דְּקָתָנֵי: וְאֶת הָרַחַת וְאֶת הַמַּלְגֵּז לָתֵת עָלָיו לְקָטָן, רַחַת וּמַלְגֵּז מִי מְיַיחֲדִי לֵיהּ לְקָטָן?! אֶלָּא אָמַר רַבָּה: קוּרְנָס שֶׁל נַפָּחִין לְפַצֵּעַ בּוֹ הָאֱגוֹזִין,

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Rabba said to him: But if** what you say is **so,** how do you reconcile this with **the latter clause** of the mishna in which **it is taught: And a winnowing shovel or a pitchfork** in order **to place** food **for a child on it; are a winnowing shovel and a pitchfork designated for** use by **a child? Rather, Rabba said:** The mishna should be interpreted as follows: One may use **a blacksmiths’ hammer** on Shabbat **to crack nuts with it.**
