That is really interesting, thank you for the information, I've been curious about this as well. In mathematical terms I suppose that would be the equivalent of fixed-interest loan with a fixed length more or less. Also see special jew-elevators with a Shabbat-mode so that they always go up and down by every level so that you can use them without operating them, meaning that you can take the elevator on a Shabbat without tricking a gentile into pushing the button for you (1). I was under the impression that Shabbat was on a Friday or Saturday. (nitpicking of course). (1) So that they can go to hell instead of the jew, or whatever? |

Anyone who follows https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_Laws_of_Noah is an OK chap apparently, probably not as cool as a Jew but I guess not to burn either? Shabbath stuff is only important if you are a Jew.

If you are really strict and not disabled you would not use elevator even with this workaround.

Outside of Israel some places switched to Sunday because otherwise too few people care.
