Biography[]
He was a disciple of R. Yochanan bar Nafcha,[1] and served as a dayan (religious judge).[2] He was ordained as a rabbi by his own rabbi—Yochanan bar Nafcha.[3] He became a leading Torah sage, with Rabbi Assi calling him a "great man".[4] Later he became a "Talmid Haver", a colleague-disciple, to Yochanan bar Nafcha, and even disputed and debated him in halakhic matters.[5] This is how he also got to know R. Shimon ben Lakish and R. Eleazar ben Pedat, whom he also disputed and debated in halakha.[6] The Talmud cites him many times, and other amoraim delivered halachic teachings in his name, among them R. Abbahu and R. . In addition, some of his aggadic teachings are recorded.
