רב יחזקאל Rav Yechezkel
Amora of Babylonia · 2nd generation (c. 250–290 CE) — named 4 times across 3 tractates of the Bavli.
Rav Yechezkel belongs to the Babylonian amoraim and is best known as the father of Rav Yehuda, who founded the academy at Pumbedita and is among the most cited sages in the Talmud.
He is named four times in this corpus — twice in Kiddushin, once each in Berachot and Sanhedrin — and his son's name is the one that stands beside his most often. Beyond his household, the reference tradition preserves little of his own teaching.
Father of Rav Yehuda.
