==Zilzul Shabbat== | |||
''Zilzul Shabbat'': The Gemara Sanhedrin 46a describes a case in which the supreme court in Yerushalayim condemned a person who rode a horse on Shabbat. Even though technically, riding a horse on Shabbat is only a rabbinic prohibition, it is considered a serious infraction upon the sanctity of Shabbat.<ref>Rambam (Sanhedrin 24:4) codifies this.</ref> | |||
#For example, it is forbidden to watch television on Shabbat.<ref>See [[Electricity_on_Shabbat#Communication on Shabbat]]</ref> | |||
