Jerusalem Talmud Shabbat
As it was stated175Babli 44a, Tosephta 3:15 (ed. Liebermann).: “All lights may be moved except the light which was burning on the Sabbath, the words of Rebbi Meïr. Rebbi Jehudah says, it is permitted to move a new light but forbidden to move an old one176A light which never had been used may be moved on the Sabbath but one which had been used is disgusting; he considers everything disgusting as muqṣeh on the Sabbath.. Rebbi Simeon says, all lights may be moved except the light which was burning on the Sabbath; if it burned out it is permitted to move it177In contrast to R. Meïr he allows a light to be moved after it stopped burning..”
