Amimar, the son of Mar Yanuka, the son of Rav Chisda the Kohen [(in the name of the Sages)] appeared before Rav Chiya bar Rav Ovia [Chulin (18:2) and was killed by the king of Persia (see Part 1, 4,000, RLD). Amimar intended to establish them in Nehardea; Rav Ashi said to him, etc. Berakhot, Perek 1 (12a). A sukkah was established in Nehardea (Niddah 55:1).
We arranged for a certain woman to come for judgment before Nehardea; Amimar went to Machoza and did not go after her. He wrote on it a note; Rav Ashi said on Rosh Hashanah (31b). The Nehardai said, etc. Amimar said, "I am from Nehardea, I am, and they should reason with me," Bava Metzia (35a), Bava Batra (31a).
Rav Acha bar Rava (as it should be) said to Ravina, "Amimar came to the place and expounded, etc." The Nehardai said according to their reasoning, Bava Batra (124:2). Rav Na'ei, the brother of Rav Chiya bar Abba, came and said thus: "Shmuel said, etc." Amimar said, "How excellent is this teaching." Rav Ashi said, "Because your father, Rami bar Chama, praised him, you too praise him, for Rava already refuted it," Ketubot (21b).
Amimar and Mar Zutra and Rav Ashi [were sitting at the entrance of the king's gate (of Persia) in the name of Mar Zushra for Rav Ashi] (Perek 4). Rav Ashi said to Mar bar Amimar, "If your father, who is a pious man, had been present, it would have been like a mistake that comes from before the ruler (Rav Ashi), and Amimar died." [Amimar permitted Rav Huna bar Natan to marry a woman from Machoza; Rav Ashi said, Kidushin (72b).
Rav Ashi before Menachot (37b). And he asked him and called him "Master," Beitzah (22a), in the name of Rav Zavid, Chulin (46b)]. In the Tosefta of Perek Hamatznia [(Chagigah 23a)], Amimar was much later than Rava, even later than Rav Pappa, who was a student of Rava. And perhaps Rav Zavid heard from the story of Amimar in the name of Rava and not from Rava himself. [And it is difficult, for Rav Acha bar Rava said, "Amimar came to the place." Amimar said to him, "My grandfather from Pumbedita," Eruvin (Perek Ra'ah) and Maharsha deletes two words, "Amimar said"].
Rav Sheshet said to him, "You have been strict." [And it is difficult that Amimar was much later than him. And the genealogy made a generation of its own; and this is his language: Amimar said to Rav Sheshet, "You have been strict." Amimar said, "I am the grandson of Nehardea, I am," and he was a judge. Amimar was the son-in-law of Rami bar Chama (see above); Rav Ashi said to him, "And perhaps this one who said, 'I am the grandson of Nehardea,' is Amimar and Mar Zutra," etc., and I do not know why they were separated.
Rav Acha bar Abba. Rav Acha bar Rava stands over them. Rav Ashi, his student, said to Rav Gameda. In the name of Rav Dimi from Nehardea.
In the name of Rav Zavid, Chulin. And Rav Zavid from Nehardea. In the name of Rav Chama, Ketubot (Perek 6:1). Rav Yimer came before him.
Rav Menyumi bar Rachumi came before him. Rav Mordechai said to him. Marimer said in the name of Rav Nachman, Chulin (45b). In the name of Rav Pappa, Chulin (8:2).
Ravina in the name of Rav. In the name of Rava, Chulin (46:2). Rav Sheshet said to him (see above)].
