I'm curious how cessation of work according to Judaic Law answers activity during wartime or even during emergent issues.

How does Shabbat "work" during wartime?

I was looking for the more historical approach but I will read the links.

Can you elaborate?

Having been in an Israeli/Arab war, the religious soldiers did all the same actions as the secular soldiers. Shabbat or not.

No, there are no sacrifices for intentionally transgressing the sacrifice. Nor is one necessary when there is life endangerment involved.

So I gather the breaking up of Shabbat was sanctioned based on emergent issues?

Ah I see so the rule of Shabbat was changed based on the Seleucids’ attack. Interesting.

Nevertheless, that isn't what unintentional sin refers to.

I always thought this is implicit.
So for example if the only food available is non-kosher, it would be permissible to eat non-kosher.
Or if someone needs emergency treatment on Shabbat, it is permissible to phone for an ambulance or drive them to hospital etc.

I can't parse this obtuse Christanspeak you're using, so I have no idea what you're saying or how you're connecting Hosea here.
Unintentional sins are sins where you either did not know the action itself is forbidden or did not realize that you were in circumstances where your otherwise permitted act became prohibited.
Whether the war was planned or not doesn't necessarily determine whether you had awareness of the permissiveness of the action at the time you performed it.
Perhaps you'd like to take you expertise to the "christian heretic" DIR.

Unless you see that section as referring to the Saducee practice and believe that the Pharisee position was always that one should, indeed, fight when attacked on the Sabbath.
