רב חמא Rav Chama
Amora of Babylonia · 5th generation (c. 350–375 CE) — named 43 times across 16 tractates of the Bavli.
Rav Chama, of the fifth Babylonian generation, is associated with Nehardea and is cited some forty-three times across sixteen tractates, weighted toward Bava Batra and Bava Metzia — the civil law, which is what one expects of a sage whose work was in a court.
He appears in the company of Rava and Ravina. The name is borne by more than one sage and the Bavli's unqualified form does not always separate them, so the entry is marked for review, and this is the short and honest account of him.
Of Nehardea.
