- There are two expressions of how to observe Shabbat in the Torah, שמור and זכור which the prophets explained as a mitzvah of כבוד (respect) and עונג (enjoyment) of Shabbat. [1]
- What is Oneg? There is a mitzvah to prepare tasty and special food for Shabbat each one according to their wealth. Eating the three meals of Shabbat, having meat and wine, and sleeping on Shabbat are all a fulfillment of Oneg Shabbat. [2]
- It is forbidden to fast on Shabbat unless one enjoys fasting. [3]

- ↑ This is the language of the Rambam (Shabbat 30:1) which implies that the mitzvah of Oneg is Derabbanan. The Mishna Brurah 242:1 writes that the Ramban holds that this mitzvah is Deoritta while the Sefer HaChinuch holds that it's Deoritta. See Sh"t Yabea Omer 4:26(2) who proves that there is no mitzvah of Simcha by Shabbat like there is by Yom Tov.
