The [types of] transfers on the Sabbath are two which are [in reality] four within, and two which are [in reality] four outside. How is this so? The poor man is standing outside and the householder inside: If the poor man extended his hand inside and placed [an object] into the householder’s hand, or if he took [an object] from it and brought [that object] out — the poor man is liable and the householder is exempt; if the householder extended his hand outside and placed [an object] into the poor man’s hand, or if he took [an object] out of it and brought [that object] in — the householder is liable and the poor man is exempt; if the poor man extended his hand inside and the householder took [an object] from it, or placed [an object] into it and he [the poor man] brought [that object] out — both are exempt; if the householder extended his hand outside and the poor man took [an object] from it, or placed [an object] into it and he [the householder] brought [that object] in — both are exempt.

A person may not sit down before a barber shortly before [the time of] Minchah, until he prays — neither may a person enter a bathhouse, nor a tannery, nor [may he begin] to eat, nor to judge — but if he started, he need not interrupt. They must interrupt for the recitation of Shema, but they need not interrupt for prayer.

A tailor may not go out with his needle shortly before nightfall, lest he forget and go out. Neither may a scribe [go out] with his pen. One may neither delouse his garments nor read, by the light of a lamp. Indeed they said: The teacher may see where the children are reading, but he may not read. Similarly, a zav may not eat with a zavah, since it might lead to sin.

And these are of the halachos that they stated in the upper chamber of Chananyah ben Chizkiah ben Gurion when they went up to visit him. They were counted and Beis Shammai outnumbered Beis Hillel and they decreed eighteen measures on that day.
