12) [line 8] BASIS L'DAVAR HE'ASUR
(a) The Rabbinical decree of Muktzah prohibits not only the actual Mukztah
item from being moved on Shabbos, but it also prohibits moving the item on
which the Muktzah rests, or its "Basis." (For example, a basket in which a
stone rests may not be moved.)
(b) The item which supports the Muktzah becomes prohibited to be moved only
if the following conditions are met:
(1) the Muktzah is placed on it before Shabbos entered and is there for the
entire duration of Bein ha'Shemashos (Shabbos 44b);
(2) the Muktzah is purposely placed and left there, as opposed to being
forgotten and inadvertently left there (Shabbos 142b);
(3) the Muktzah is there alone and there is no other permissible
(non-Muktzah) item resting there (Shabbos 142a);
(4) according to Rabeinu Tam (Tosfos, Beitzah 2a), the "Basis" is only
prohibited if one places the Muktzah there before Shabbos with intention to
leave it there for the *entire* day of Shabbos.
(c) The object upon which the Muktzah is resting is prohibited to be moved
only if that object is serving the purpose of supporting the Muktzah item.
If, however, the Muktzah item is serving the purpose of the object upon
which it is placed, then that object underneath the Muktzah is not
considered a "Basis" for a forbidden object (Rashi 49a, DH Notel). (For
example, if shreds of clothing which are Muktzah are placed atop a pot in
order to preserve its heat, the pot is not considered a Basis for the
Muktzah, because the Muktzah is serving the purpose of the pot.)
13) [line 11] MOSVINAN A'SHEMA'ATIN - I ask an apparent contradiction to

19) [line 27] GASHUS SHEL SEFINAH - the sounding pole of a ship
20) [line 31] CHARIYOS SHEL DEKEL - the spines of dried palm branches
21) [line 32] SHE'GADRAN - which he cut
22) [line 33] LIKSHOR - to tie the Chariyos together
23) [line 35] MECHUBERES B'AVIHA - it is still attached to the grapevine
24) [line 36] MISHTAMESH B'MECHUBAR LA'KARKA
The Rabanan made a decree not to use or to support oneself with anything
that is attached to the ground and higher than three Tefachim above the
ground, for fear that the person will transgress the Melachah of Kotzer
(reaping) on Shabbos.
