Amora of Babylonia · 5th generation×9 named in the Bavli6 tractates

Rav Nechemya son of Rav Yosef, of the fifth Babylonian generation, is named some nine times across six tractates, most often in Chullin, and appears in the company of Rav Huna, Rava and Rav Pappi.

The fuller form of his name is what keeps him apart in this index from the plain Rav Nechemya, whose entry the roster holds separately. Beyond his generation and the circle in which he is cited, the reference tradition holds little about him that can be stated firmly, and the honest entry is the short one.

Of the fifth generation.
