Rav Pappa (Hebrew: רַב פּפּא) (ca. 300 – died 375) was a Jewish Talmudist who lived in Babylonia.[1][2] He was an Amora; a student of both Rava and Abaye. He led the Talmudical academy in Nehardea (also called Naresh, or Nareš), close to Sura, during the fifth generation of Babylonian amoraim.[3][4] An expert brewer, Rav Papa was a wealthy man,[5] and it is said that whenever he completed a tractate in the Talmud he held a large party at which he invited his ten sons and many other people. At many modern siyums, a short prayer is said which mentions Rav Pappa and his ten sons. ——
