05 Shabbat 2/6-7 & 3/1-2

(6) Women die in childbirth for three transgressions: If they are not careful with [the laws] of menstruation; and if they are not careful [to separate some] dough [when baking to give to the priest]; and if they are not careful with the lighting of the [Shabbat] lamp.

(7) At dusk on the eve of shabbat, a man must make three statements: Have you separated the tithe? Have you prepared the Eruv [the halachic merging of separate domains by means of setting aside an amount of food in a designated place]? Light the lamps! If it is uncertain whether it is night [dark] or not, one may not tithe [produce that is] certainly untithed; and one may not immerse vessels [in a Mikveh]; and one may not light the lamps. One may [however] tithe Demai [produce from which it is uncertain whether tithes were already taken]; and one may prepare the Eruv, and one may cover [pots] of hot food [to retain their heat.]

(1) A pot of food may be placed on a double stove [which holds two pots, shortly before Shabbat], if it is fueled with straw or stubble; [but if it is fueled] with peat or wood one may not put [a pot of food thereon] unless he sweeps out [the lower compartment], or puts ashes [there]. Beit Shammai say: [One may place] hot water [on such a stove] but not cooked food; but Beit Hillel say: [One may place both] hot water and cooked food [there]. Beit Shammai: One may remove [a pot from the stove], but may not return [it]; but Beit Hillel say: One may even return [it].

(2) [If] an oven is fueled with straw or stubble, one may not put anything either into it or on its outside [surface]. A single [pot] stove which is fueled with straw or stubble is considered like a double stove; but [if fueled] with peat or wood is considered like an oven.
