alex lebovits asked:

R' Chrysler Hello.

Acc. to your definiton of "meshubadim"; and I quote you here (from your question and answer sheet): "'Meshubadim' (property from which the creditor has a right to claim), by definition, applies only to property owned by the debtor at the time of the loan, which he sold after that date."

Why is then a shtar meuchar kosher?-It is possible that new land was actually bought only after the loan was made; but because the shtar is dated later it appears that the land was around already at the time of the loan!

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Be well,

alex lebovits, toronto, canada

The Kollel replies:

You are correct. We should correct the definition we provided to read, "applies only to property owned by the debtor at the time of the loan or at any point after the loan was made, which he sold after the date of the loan."

Thank you,

Mordecai Kornfeld
