Hilchos Yom Tov Part 2

And-- I'm sorry, make, do whatever melacha, what-- not every melacha, but me- to do melacha, let's say, cooking for food.

And we said that there's a klal even of midioych, that midioych shehoto letzorech oto na'ase shelo letzorech.

So we said that at least by chotzah, ha'avarah, and bisul, carrying, um, lighting a fire, and bisul, there's a klal that midioych shehoto letzorech is hoto even shelo letzorech.

Therefore, even something which is not really food is also mutar.

We mentioned last week a question, uh, which I would like to focus on and try to answer this question.

The Torah says, lo sasah koh melacha, that you're not allowed to do melacha on Yom Tov.

The Torah then turns around and says, ach asher yirach lekhol nefesh hu davar sheyasah lecha.

So there's a isur melacha, so all thirty-nine melachos are included.

There's then a heter that if it's ochel nefesh, it's mutar.

So why is it that I can't do all thirty-nine melachos on Yom Tov? For example, wouldn't it be nice if a woman would be able to put on makeup on Yom Tov, right? Solve a lot of problems for a lot of people if she can put on makeup on Yom Tov.

Now, y- ma-makeup is, is sort of zeh v'eh.

Why don't we say, so good it's included in lo sasah koh melacha.

But why don't we say midioych sheho- th- why don't we say that the ma'aseh it's ochel nefesh, it's letzorech the guf, and therefore it's mutar? We discussed also when it comes to writing, we don't find that there's a heter for writing.

Question is, why not? So if you look in the Rambam, the Rambam is a shtick al ha-li-- um, um, um, arichus over here, but I think it's kedai because it, it will give us the klal to understand.
