The Bible says that you cannot work nor cause anyone else to work. You may take this to extremes, but my family goes to the beach or just play games at home. This does not mean you can't make a sandwich or if there is an emergency you cant go to the hospital. Just use common sense. I am allowed to do things on saturday nights but not during the day to keep the sabbath day holy.

AnswerJews believe that work can not be performed on the Sabbath, which begins at sunset on Friday and continues to sunset on Saturday. Some extremely conservative Jews would not even, for example, press a button at a pedestrian crossing or in a lift or elevator, although they would allow another person to do that for them.

The Sabbath, which for most Christians is Sunday, but for a minority it can be Saturday, was traditionally regarded as a day when non-essential paid work is not performed and even sports were discouraged. This view has largely broken down in most countries, and any legal activities are permitted on Sunday.

Technically, one can do anything, but one should not do everything one can do.

And in short, one should only do what is loving towards God and His creation, including to humans.

The Torah commands the Jews not to do any of the 39 forbidden forms of work, which are listed in the Talmud (tractate Shabbat, folio page 73b). These include writing, turning on or off electric appliances, making fire, driving a car, and others.

The real sabbath day according to the Bible is the seventh day of the week (our Saturday). God blessed the seventh day of creation and set it apart for holy use. And He told us to remember and keep the sabbath day holy in the ten commandments. Many Christians believe the sabbath is now Sunday, but the Bible nowhere speaks of any change in the sabbath day. There is no such thing as a "Sunday Sabbath" because the Sabbath [the 7th day] looks back and is a memorial to creation, while Sunday [the 1st day] commemorates the resurrection but also looks ahead to the return of Jesus Christ. They are not the same
