רבי יונתן בן שאול Rabbi Yonatan ben Shaul
Tanna · 4th generation (c. 135–170 CE) — named 5 times across 1 tractate of the Bavli.
Rabbi Yonatan ben Shaul, of the fourth tannaitic generation, is named five times, and all five are in Sanhedrin — an unusually narrow footprint, and one that follows from the ruling he is cited for.
That ruling concerns the pursuer: one who could have stopped a pursuer by injuring a limb, and killed him instead, is held to account for it. It is among the passages on which the later discussion of saving the pursued, and of the limits of force, rests. The roster marks the entry for review.
