Yigal, you wrote:

Rabbinic interpretation, which is the traditional Jewish observance of the Sabbath, is that it is
not "physical labor" per se that is forbidden but "creative work", which the
Rabbis listed as 49 categories such as building, lighting a fire, carrying in the public domain,
writing, buying and selling etc.

Just for the sake of precision, don't you mean 39 categories?

Yours,
Jason Hare
