Although, this is not accepted by all, Rav Huna( as interpreted by Rav Hisda) disagrees with him, in addition Rabbi Yehuda referes not to a general Prohibition against toil but to a special restriction in regard to food.

3. In the case of Yom- tov we find no such Prohibition, only the Prohibition of toil in preparing something on Yom- tov for the weekday.

4. In the Yerushalmi we find that certain acts were prohibited on the Intermediate Days of the festival because of toil.

C. 1. Nevertheless, Rashi and his followers explain many of the Sabbath and Yom- tov Prohibitions found in the Talmud as forbidden because of the hardship and toil involved( in one instance it would seem that Rashi is of the opinion that toil and hardship are Torah Prohibitions, however it is more likely that the Torah source is a reference only).

2. It is in the Tosafot that we find the first systematic explanation of the place of toil Prohibition on the Sabbath and Yom- tov and the fundamental difference between it and" Ovadin De'chol":

a.

It is their position that" Ovadin De'chol" Prohibitions apply to acts done publicly, and are designed to restrain acts that might look like weekday activities.

b." Ovadin De'chol" Prohibitions relate essentially only to Yom- tov as it is not in principle permitted on the Sabbath to carry objects in the public domain, as a result this Prohibition will not generally occur on the Sabbath.

c. Only on the Sabbath are we concerned with great hardship, on Yom- tov this does not concern us.
