יבמות פרק י"ג משנה ג׳

Rabbi Eliezer ben Ya’akov says otherwise: If there is any obstruction in the matter due to the man, it is as if she were his wife. If there is any obstruction in the matter that is not due to the man, it is as if she were not his wife. This statement will be explained in the Gemara.
רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר בֶּן יַעֲקֹב אוֹמֵר, כָּל עַכָּבָה שֶׁהִיא מִן הָאִישׁ, כְּאִלּוּ הִיא אִשְׁתּוֹ. וְכָל עַכָּבָה שֶׁאֵינָהּ מִן הָאִישׁ, כְּאִלּוּ אֵינָהּ אִשְׁתּוֹ:

כל עכבה שהיא מן האיש. נתן לה גט, זו היא עכבה שהיא מן האיש, דכיון דלא מיאנה גילתה דעתה שכל מה שהיתה מתעכבת אצלו היה בשבילו. מיאנה בו, זו היא עכבה שאינה מן האיש, שלא נתעכבה אצלו משום אישות. ומתניתין מפרש לה ואזיל:
כל עכבה שהיא מן האיש – he (i.e., the husband) gave her a Jewish bill of divorce, this is the hindrance that comes from the man, for since she did not refuse/protest him, she revealed her intention that all that she tarried/delayed with him was for him. If she protested/refused him, this is the hindrance that is not from the man, for she did not detain herself with him because of marriage, and our Mishnah explains that and continue.
