חַיָּבֵי עֲרָכִים, מְמַשְׁכְּנִין אוֹתָן. חַיָּבֵי חַטָּאוֹת וַאֲשָׁמוֹת, אֵין מְמַשְׁכְּנִין אוֹתָן. חַיָּבֵי עוֹלוֹת וּשְׁלָמִים, מְמַשְׁכְּנִין אוֹתָן אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁאֵין מִתְכַּפֵּר לוֹ עַד שֶׁיִּתְרַצֶּה, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר (ויקרא א), לִרְצוֹנוֹ, כּוֹפִין אוֹתוֹ עַד שֶׁיֹּאמַר, רוֹצֶה אָנִי. וְכֵן אַתָּה אוֹמֵר בְּגִטֵּי נָשִׁים, כּוֹפִין אוֹתוֹ עַד שֶׁיֹּאמַר, רוֹצֶה אָנִי:

With regard to those who made a vow of value, they take a pledge from them. With regard to those obligated to bring a <i>chatat</i> [offering brought to expiate sin] or <i>asham</i> [offering brought to alleviate guilt], they do not take a pledge. With regard to those obligated to bring an <i>olah</i> or a <i>shelamim</i> [offering whose various parts are consumed by its owners, the Kohanim and the fire on the altar], they do take a pledge. And even though he is not atoned for unless he accedes willingly [to give his obligation], as it is said: “willingly” (Leviticus 1:3), they coerce him until he says: I am willing. The same is true in the case of divorce documents: they coerce him until he says: I am willing.
