רב יעקב Rav Yaakov
Amora of Babylonia · 4th generation (c. 320–350 CE) — named 19 times across 10 tractates of the Bavli.
Rav Yaakov, of the fourth Babylonian generation. The entry is marked for review: more than one sage carries the name, and the Bavli's bare form does not separate them.
He is named close to twenty times across ten tractates, one of those inside another's patronymic, heaviest in Ketubot. Abaye, Ravina and Rav Ashi are the names the form stands beside; beyond the generation and that company, the reference tradition holds little that can be stated firmly.
More than one sage of the name.
