Talmud zu Sheviit 10:4
זֶהוּ גוּפוֹ שֶׁל פְּרוֹזְבּוּל. מוֹסֵר אֲנִי לָכֶם אִישׁ פְּלוֹנִי וּפְלוֹנִי הַדַּיָּנִים שֶׁבְּמָקוֹם פְּלוֹנִי, שֶׁכָּל חוֹב שֶׁיֶּשׁ לִי, שֶׁאֶגְבֶּנּוּ כָּל זְמַן שֶׁאֶרְצֶה. וְהַדַּיָּנִים חוֹתְמִין לְמַטָּה, אוֹ הָעֵדִים:
Dies ist der Körper des Pruzbul : "Ich vertraue Ihnen an, so und so und so und so, die an diesem und jenem Ort beurteilen, dass ich jedes Darlehen, das ich habe, jederzeit einziehen kann Ich wünsche." Und die Richter bringen unten ihre Unterschriften oder die Zeugen an.
Jerusalem Talmud Gittin
MISHNAH: A widow can be paid from the orphans’ property only by an oath55If the widow continued to live in her husband’s house, she is suspected to have taken from her husband’s property more than was necessary for her guaranteed support and, therefore, if she decides to leave that house she cannot collect her ketubah without swearing that nothing of her ketubah already came into her hand, similar to a woman who had received a down payment on her ketubah, cf. Ketubot 9:8,9.. When they avoided letting her swear56The rabbis became worried that the widow while caring for the orphans took things which she thought were payment for her work but which legally should be counted as part payment of the ketubah; if she then swore that she had received nothing, the widow involuntarily transgressed the prohibition of false oaths and the rabbis the prohibition of “putting a stone in the path of the blind.”, Rabban Gamliel the Elder instituted that she should make a vow57A vow that she would prohibit on herself the use of anything (food, vessel, place) chosen by the orphans if she had received any down payment for her ketubah. For these “vows of mortification”, see Introduction to Tractate Nedarim. on the instruction of the orphans for anything they would decide on and collect her ketubah, and that witnesses sign the bill of divorce because of the public good. Hillel instituted prozbol for the public good58Prozbol is a document which turns a private debt (subject to the laws of revocation in the Sabbatical year) into a public debt (exempt from these laws) in order to maintain an operating banking system; cf. Ševi‘it 10:3 ff..

Jerusalem Talmud Sanhedrin
Rebbi Yose said, one understands from here: 107This is from Ševiˋit 10:3, Note 91 where prozbol is explained. The text there and in the Babli, Ketubot 22a, is in the name of the earlier Amora R. Abba. If three sat in judgment and one of them died, two sign and note: Even though we are two who sign, we were three in judging. Rebbi Ḥaggai said, a Mishnah implies this: “The judges sign at the bottom or the witnesses.” Does one learn court documents from prozbol? It was found stated: This about court documents he inferred from the rules of prozbol.
