Rav Yitzchak, of the third Babylonian generation, is cited some eighty times, a fifth of them the name standing inside another sage's patronymic.

This is the Babylonian form of a name several sages bear, and the Bavli does not separate them; the entry is marked for review. The mentions are spread across twenty-two tractates without gathering anywhere, and the company is that of Rav Yehuda, Rava and Shmuel's circle.
