DEUT1125 It is a negative commandment that a man's garment, etc., should not be on a woman as Scripture says, A woman shall not wear what pertains to a man [this verse]. This means clothing and ornaments that are widely known in the city to be specifically for a man. A woman is not to wear them. Nor is she to shave her head like a man.

DEUT1126 It is negative commandment that a man should not wear a woman's garment as Scripture says, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment [this verse]. "A woman's garment" denotes clothing and ornaments which are widely known in the city to be specifically for a woman. So too, if a man plucks white hairs from among the dark, from his head or his beard--even one hair; or if he dyes his hair dark -- even if he dies one white hair -- by any one of these acts he violates this [prohibition]. By the laws of the Sages a man is not to remove the hair of his armpits or his pubic hair. Whoever removes it from a place [on the body] where none but women [generally] remove it, is to be beaten with whiplashes of disobedience. It is permissible, however, to remove the hair of other limbs and parts, everywhere, with a scissors.

DEUT1280 It is a negative commandment not to borrow at interest from a member of Jewry since Scripture says, “You shall not give interest to your brother (D’varim 23:20), which is an admonition to the borrower. He would also violate the injunction, nor shall you put a stumbling-block before the blind (Va-yikra 19:14).

DEUT1318 It is positive commandment that an owner should allow the laborer to eat of what he is working at, when it is something that grows from the ground since Scripture says, When you come in to your fellow's vineyard, then you may eat, etc. [this verse]; and it says, When you come into your fellow's standing grain, you may pluck the ears, etc. [this verse]; and by the Oral Tradition it was learned that Scripture speaks here of a laborer. He may eat produce that either was plucked or is attached, whose work has not been completed yet, and by this act [of his labor] the work is completed [to make it bear the obligations of tithes or of hallah]. This means, then, not before the completion of the work nor after the completion of the work, but only during the completion of the work. And for the purpose of returning a loss [lost working time] to the owner, the Sages taught (Talmud, Bava M'tzi'a 91b) that the workers should eat while walking from one furrow to another, and while returning from the winepress [even though they are not actually working then], so that they should not stop their work and sit down to eat, but should rather eat during the labor while they are walking, and us not be idle from their work. If someone is guarding produce attached to the soil, he is not to eat [of it] at all, since a watchman is not like one doing actual labor. If a person is guarding reaped produce, he may eat [of it] not by the law of the Torah, but by the norms of the land.

DEUT1370 It is a positive commandment to give a pledged (pawned) object back to its owner at the time that he needs it as Scripture says, you shall surely restore to him the pledge [this verse]. It is all one whether a person takes an object in pledge (pawn) from his fellow-man through the court or he takes it with his own hand (directly), by force or with the borrower's consent -- he has this duty, and he is to return him a pillow at night; and tools with which he does his work, work clothes that he wears in the daytime, he has to return him by day for the entire day.
