Rav Nachumi bar Zecharya, of the fifth Babylonian generation, is named seven times across four tractates — Beitzah, Shabbat, Eruvin and Keritot, which is to say the law of the Sabbath and the festivals — and he is cited in Abaye's company.

The roster marks the entry for review. Beyond his generation and those citations, the reference tradition holds little about him that can be stated firmly.
