רב שמואל בר רב יצחק Rav Shmuel bar Rav Yitzchak
Amora of the Land of Israel · 3rd generation (c. 290–320 CE) — named 37 times across 15 tractates of the Bavli.
Rav Shmuel bar Rav Yitzchak, of the third amoraic generation in Eretz Yisrael, was a Babylonian who went up to the land. The tradition remembers him for the joy he brought to a bride — he would dance before her with a myrtle branch in his hand — and for what is told of his passing, that a pillar of fire stood between his bier and the world.
He is named close to forty times across fifteen tractates, heaviest in Niddah and Eruvin, and eight of those citations carry a teaching in Rav's name. The roster keeps this form apart from two neighbouring spellings of the same name and marks the entry for review.
