Study Guide Shevuot 21

What is the type of oath that is including in the negative commandment – do not swear falsely in my (God’s) name?  There is a debate regarding Rabbi Yochanan’s opinion on this matter.  When Rabbi Akiva in the mishna says that one is obligated even for eating a miniscule amount – does he hold this across the board or only when it comes to an oath?
