Bishul on Shabbos part 1

As most of you know, this year I'm focusing my learning about Shabbos (mainly the halachic aspects).
One of my learning methods is defining concepts in my own words and being able to do so in a few concise sentences.

Here is my attempt at a concise paragraph explaining/examining the historical background of bishul:

The Av melacha of bishul falls into a broader category of malachos termed by the gamara¹, “sedura d’pas,” (lit. “The order of bread”). All of the malachos in this catagory are in some way or another connected to the making of the lechem ha’panim, or the dyes that were used to color the wool (curtains etc.) and tapestries in the mishkan. There is a machlokes Rishonim regarding if the malacha of bishul should be the av malacha, or if afiya (baking) is the rightful av. Many meforshim argue against the idea that afiya is the av malacha; they explain that only activities preformed as part of the construction of the mishkan can be classified as av malachos, where as afiya was only used in the regular functioning of the mishkan². For most practical purposes the distinction is purely academic (theoretical).

Hatzlacha,
Shanee
