Carrying From One Domain to Another on Shabbat

Carrying From One Domain to Another on Shabbat
Day: Tuesday
Date: November 10, 2015
Parshat: Tolidot
Yalkut Yosef: O"H: 345

In memory of Avraham Asher ben Tzadika

The Torah forbids picking up an object in Reshut Harabim and putting it down in Reshut Hayahid or vice versa. This is called Hotza'ah. Picking up an object in Reshut Harabim and putting it down four amot, six to eight feet, away while still in Reshut Harabim is also considered to be bringing an object into another domain. In order to safeguard us, our Hachamim extended this prohibition to include a person who picked up an object in one domain and carried it to the other domain but didn't put down, or one who put the object down in the other domain but was handed the object rather than having picked it up .
