Talmud su Bava Batra 10:16
Jerusalem Talmud Sheviit
MISHNAH: A predated prozbol is valid, postdated it is invalid. Predated documents of indebtedness are invalid, postdated they are valid. If one person borrows from five, one writes a prozbol for each single [creditor]. If five persons borrow from one, he writes only one prozbol for all of them.
One writes prozbol only on the basis of real estate. If he104It was shown in Note 92 that one of his debtors must have real estate for a creditor’s prozbol. has none, [the other party] gives him the right to a minute area of their field. If he had a field mortgaged105Even if the loan is paid back in instalments, that for a fixed number of terms the creditor works the field and takes all its yield, it remains the property of the debtor. in town, one writes a prozbol on it. Rebbi Ḥuẓpit says, one writes for a man on his wife’s properties106Even if this is separate property, not dowry which becomes the husband’s property for the duration of the marriage. and for orphans on those of the guardians107Greek ἐπίτροπος “guardian, attorney”. In the opinion of the Babli (Giṭṭin 37a), documented claims of minor orphans are always under the supervision of the court, have the status of court documents, and do not need prozbol. The Babli is therefore obliged to interpret the Mishnah as speaking of debts incurred by the guardians for the living expenses of the orphans. This does not seem to be the position of the Yerushalmi..
A bee hive. Rebbi Eliezer says, it is like real estate: one may write a prozbol on it, it is not subject to impurity in its place114No real estate and nothing permanently connected to the ground can become impure., and somebody who takes honey from it on the Sabbath is guilty115Removing food from the ground is the definition of harvesting.. But the Sages say, it is not like real estate, one may not write a prozbol on it, it is subject to impurity in its place, and somebody who takes honey from it on the Sabbath is not sanctionable116While it is not permitted outright, there is no punishment for the action since no biblical Sabbath prohibition has been violated. The first part of the Mishnah is also in Uqeẓin 3:10.. If somebody returns a debt in the Sabbatical, he [the lender] says to him: “I am remitting.” If he [the borrower] says “anyway”, he [the lender] should accept it, for it is said (Deut. 15:2): “This is the word of remission117Once the word “remission” has been uttered, duty has been fulfilled.”.
Similarly, a homicide exiled to a city of refuge whom the citizens of the town wanted to honor, should say to them: I am a homicide. If they tell him, anyway, he should accept it, for it is said (Deut. 19:4): “This is the word of a homicide.”
