The nature of Shabbos leads to our feeling a deep sense of security and relaxation. Many of the practices we do on this day of rest were put in place to portray that. Rav Berkovits teaches how we show Oneg on Shabbos, such as eating foods we like. Kavod on Shabbos, another issue, includes having laundered clothing, and having Melaveh Malkah, and lighting candles. Also discussed is having someone else do a forbidden act for you on Shabbos.
Biting nails or loose skin is a no-no. Rav Berkovits moves from there to the halachos of cleaning something, such as moving dust off of a coat, or shaking out a wet garment. Dyeing material is also discussed. Is it a problem to clean up a spill when it will stain the rag you're using? Making knots is a complex subject that must be understood well in order to find ways to close bags and shoes in an acceptable manner.
Why are we allowed to do certain things on Yom Tov that we would refrain from on Shabbos? Rav Berkovits guides us through a sometimes confusing day, explaining how and when we are allowed to cook, bake and carry, and adding in some things we would never imagine are permissible.
