Bartenura
אין בין יו״ט לשבת אלא אוכל נפש בלבד. מתניתין ב״ש היא [ביצה יב.] דאמרי אין מוציאין את הקטן ולא את הלולב ולא את הס״ת לרשות הרבים כיון שאין בהם צורך אוכל נפש. ואין כן הלכה אלא כדברי בית הלל דאמרי מתוך שהותרה הוצאה לצורך אכילה הותרה נמי שלא לצורך אכילה. ואיכא נמי מילי אחרינא שאסורים בשבת ומותרים ביו״ט אע״פ שאינם צורך אוכל נפש, כגון משילין פירות דרך ארובה ביו״ט, אבל לא בשבת:
שזה זדונו בידי אדם. שבת יש בה מיתת ב״ד:
Mishnah 2
Mishnayos Megillah Perek 1 Mishnah 6
מגילה פרק א׳ משנה ו׳
Bartenura
אין בין המודר הנאה – One who is forbidden by vow to derive any benefit is not more severe than one [who is forbidden] by vow from [consuming] food other than entering one’s ground, for one [who is forbidden] by vow to derive any benefit , is prohibited to enter into his [home],[whereas] one [who is forbidden] by vow from [consuming] food is permitted [to enter into his home].
וכליים שאין עושין בהן אוכל נפש – It is permitted to lend them (i.e., the utensils) to one [who is forbidden] by vow from [consuming] food, and especially in a place where they do not hire and similar cases, but in a place where we hire and similar things, it is prohibited, for all benefit that brings one towards [eating] food, for if he did not derive this benefit which is wanting at least the equivalent of a Perutah/penny, it is the benefit of food, for since it is appropriate for that Perutah/penny [to be used] to purchase food.
נדר – He who says, “behold this burnt offering is upon me,” and afterwards, he set it aside and it was lost, he is liable for his property which may be resorted to in the event of non-payment.
נדבה – He who says, “behold this burnt offering is upon me,” and it was lost, he is not liable for his property which may resorted to in the event of non-payment, for he did not accept it upon himself, but [regarding] the matter of "בל תאחר"/that he should not be late (see Deuteronomy 23:22: “When you make a vow to the LORD your God, do not put off fulling it/לא תאחר לשלמו , [for the LORD your God will require it of you, and you will have incurred guilt.]”); both are equivalent, as it says (Deuteronomy 23:24): “…and perform what you have voluntarily vowed to the LORD your God, having made the promise with your own mouth,” for behold, vows and donations are mentioned in this matter.
אין בין המודר הנאה. אין מודר הנאה חמור ממודר מאכל אלא דריסת הרגל, שמודר הנאה אסור לו ליכנס בתוך שלו ומודר מאכל מותר:
וכלים שאין עושין בהן אוכל נפש. מותר להשאילן למודר מאכל. ודוקא במקום שאין משכירין כיוצא בהם, אבל במקום שמשכירין כיוצא בהם, אסור, דכל הנאה המביאה לידי מאכל שאם לא ההנהו זה מחוסר בה שוה פרוטה, הנאת מאכל הוא שהרי ראויה אותה פרוטה לקנות בה מאכל:
נדר. האומר הרי עלי עולה, ולאחר זמן הפרישה ונאבדה, חייב באחריותה:
נדבה. האומר הרי זו עולה, ונאבדה, אינו חייב באחריותה, שהרי לא קבלה עליו. אבל לענין בל תאחר זה וזה שוין דכתיב (דברים כ״ג:כ״ד) כאשר נדרת לה׳ אלהיך נדבה אשר דברת בפיך, הרי נדר ונדבה אמורים בענין:

After World War II, in 1947, Rav Yonah Sztencl, a disciple of Rav Frommer, expanded the program, advocating for a comprehensive study of Shishah Sidrei Mishnah.

אין בין יו"ט לשבת אלא אוכל נפש בלבד – [See Mishnah Betzah, 5:2] Our Mishnah is according to [the teachings of] the School of Shammai, who say (Betza 12a), we don’t take out a young child or a Lulav or a Torah scroll into the public domain, since they lack the need for food preparation. And this is not the Halakha, but only according to the words of the School of Hillel, who say that since we are permitted to bring something out for the purposes of eating, it is also permitted to take them out not for the sake of eating. And there are also other things that are prohibited on Shabbat but permitted on Yom Tov/Jewish holy days, even though they are not for the sake of food preparation, such as [see Mishnah Betzah, 5:1] throwing down fruit (if it is about to rain) [that was spread out to dry on the roof] through a trap door on a Jewish holy day, but not on Shabbat.
שזה זדונו בידי אדם – [if one violates a Mitzvah willfully] on Shabbat , which has death by a Jewish court.
