Biography
He was the pupil of Joshua ben Levi, and resided at Tyre.[2] The prominent sages Rav Nachman and Rav Zeira saw him in a special way, and whenever there were doubts concerning his studies they would send off a messenger to ask him about it,[2] and he would refer to him as "Master".[3] He is often cited together with R. Samuel ben Nahman.[4]
Teachings
He ruled that even though havdalah may be recited until Tuesday evening, the blessing on the havdalah candle may only be recited on Saturday night.[5]
