Rabina I.

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rabina I. (also: Rawina I. ) was a Babylonian Amora of the 6th generation and lived and worked in the 4th and 5th centuries AD.

He was a student of the famous head of the Mahuza school , Raba , with whose son Acha (b. Raba) he later argued many times.

Rabina was the most important employee, after other colleagues, after other teachers of Aschi , the head of the school in Mata Machseja (suburb of Sura ), in the editing of the Babylonian Talmud .

Rabina was friends with Rab Nachman bar Isaak and must have reached a very old age. He died about five years before Aschi (421?).

Rabina II (bar Huna) was Rabina's I nephew.
