Talmud for Ketubot 67:3

מאי טעמא דרבי יוחנן הסנדלר כדדריש ר' חייא אפיתחא דבי נשיאה (שמות לא, יד) ושמרתם את השבת כי קדש היא לכם מה קודש אסור באכילה אף מעשה שבת אסורין באכילה אי מה קודש אסור בהנאה אף מעשה שבת אסור בהנאה ת"ל לכם שלכם יהא

What is R. Yohanan the Sandler’s reasoning? As R. Hiyya expounded at the entrance of the house of the Patriarch: “You shall keep the Shabbat for it is holy to you” (Exodus 31:14). Just as what is holy is forbidden to be eaten, so too what has been prepared on Shabbat is forbidden to be eaten. If [so, you might say that] just as what is holy is forbidden to be enjoyed, so too what has been prepared on Shabbat should be forbidden to be enjoyed? It says, “to you,” from this we learn: It shall belong to you.
