Amora of Babylonia · 4th generation×26 named in the Bavli14 tractates

Rav Achadvoi bar Ami, of the fourth Babylonian generation, belonged to Rav Sheshet's circle; the Bavli also writes him without the patronymic. The Talmud tells that he once answered Rav Sheshet lightly, that Rav Sheshet was pained, and that his learning left him until Rav Sheshet's own prayer restored it — a story the tradition keeps for the weight it puts on a teacher's honour rather than for the law.

He is named some twenty-six times across fourteen tractates, heaviest in Shabbat, and Rav Sheshet is the name he stands beside most.

Of Rav Sheshet's circle.
