For someone who is spending Shabbat in a city or town, whether its residents are Jewish or non-Jewish, the whole area that is built up contiguously is considered one place, and the 2,000 amot<\/em> of the te\u0125um<\/em> are measured from its perimeter. Even if there is space between the homes, as long as they are surrounded by a fence or an eruv<\/em>, the entire enclosed area is considered one place, and the 2,000 amot<\/em> are measured from its perimeter (as will be explained in section 8).<\/p>\n

All this pertains to one who spends Shabbat in the city or within its squared-off area. However, one who spends Shabbat in a field near the city is limited to 2,000 amot<\/em> in each direction, and if his 2,000 amot<\/em> terminate inside a city, his te\u0125um<\/em> ends right there, in the middle of the city. We do not consider the whole city his four amot<\/em>.[5]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

If a town is so small that the entire area is within his 2,000 amot<\/em>, then the area of the town is skipped (the whole city is considered four amot<\/em>), and his 2,000 amot<\/em> continue from the far edge of the town (SA 408:1).
