全卷由此开卷:安息日所禁的出运,本是两样,而两边各看作四样。

安息日所禁的出运——从公共区搬到私人区,或从私人区搬到公共区——本是两样;就私人区里那人一边看,是两样而实四样;就外头公共区里那人一边看,也是两样而实四样。
The acts of carrying out from a public domain into a private domain or vice versa, which are prohibited on Shabbat, are primarily two basic actions that comprise four cases from the perspective of a person inside a private domain, and two basic actions that comprise four cases from the perspective of a person outside, in a public domain.
「两样而实四样」是密释纳惯用的数法:妥拉 明写的是两样(搬出与搬进),各再分出「递给人」与「从人手里取」两种做法,便成四样。里外两边各有四样,合为八样——下文 2a.3 至 2a.6 逐样细说这八样。
