Question
Hello Rabbi, I saw in the previous Shemitah that a person made a Prozbul in the morning, and before Mincha, just before the holiday began, he gathered more people to make a Prozbul again, explaining that money had entered the bank. I didn't understand the connection. When is it necessary to make a Prozbul twice?
Answer
Shalom and blessings. The Prozbul does not apply to loans given after the writing of the Prozbul. Therefore, the Jew who heard that money entered his bank account on the eve of Rosh Hashanah after the morning Prozbul, and this money is a loan [more precisely, half a loan and half a deposit according to the conditions of Heter Iska], should make the Prozbul only after the last time money enters the bank account. Of course, if he knows that money will enter the bank, he can make it later, and there is no need to do it in the morning as well.
