This afternoon (12/6/22), in our Rambam Bekius mini-shiur, we began by going through a few more facts - in the Rambam, the Gemara, and the Aruch ha'Shulchan - before attempting to answer the general question we raised yesterday. We concluded with one of my favorite statements from the Meiri on how talmidei chachamim should relate to Shabbos, as well as a statement from the Radak on the purpose of Shabbos.
