Amora of Babylonia · 4th generation×17 named in the Bavli10 tractates1 as a patronymic

Rav Yitzchak son of Rav Yehuda, of the fourth Babylonian generation.

He is named some seventeen times across ten tractates, one of those inside another's patronymic, heaviest in Niddah, Eruvin and Shabbat. A Rav Yehuda carries a teaching in his name once, and the Talmud otherwise brings him among the questioners of his generation rather than as an authority the law turns on. Rabbah bar bar Chana, Shmuel's rulings and Abaye are the company he keeps in the corpus.

Of the fourth generation.
