Haninah
Hanina(h) ben Ahi Rabbi Joshua (), or Hananiah ben Ahi Rabbi Joshua (), meaning 'Haninah/Hananiah son of the brother of Rabbi Yehoshua' was a Jewish Tanna sage of the third generation. Unlike many other Tannaitic sages, he is not recognized by his father's name, but rather with his uncle's name, R. Joshua ben Hananiah. He does not appear on the Mishnah at all. Sometimes he is recorded in baraitas as merely Hananiah, which can lead to confusion with Hananiah ben Akavia. Biography He was a contemporary of Judah ben Bathyra, Matteya ben Heresh, and Jonathan. Who his father was is not stated; nor is anything known of his early years. He was named after his grandfather, Hananiah. He acquired his Torah knowledge from his uncle R. Joshua ben Hananiah (from whom he received his cognomen), and witnessed his uncle's activities on the Sanhedrin of Yavne. In the days of Gamaliel II he once ventured to give a decision, for which he was summoned before Gamaliel; but his uncle, by reporting ...

Hananiah Harari
Hananiah Harari (August 29, 1912 – July 19, 2000) was an American painter and illustrator. Life Harari was born Richard (Dick) Falk Goldman, in Rochester, New York. He studied at the Syracuse University School of Fine Arts. He went to Paris in the 1930s, where he studied with Fernand Léger from 1932 to 1934; he also studied with Marcel Gromaire and André Lhote. Following a visit to Palestine, he returned to the United States in 1935. He helped found the American Abstract Artists in 1937. Some of his works of this period record his reaction as a Jew to the rise of Fascism in Europe; an example is ''The Dictators'' (1938, oil and collage on canvas; now in the Jewish Museum, New York). His first New York exhibition was in 1939, at Mercury Gallery. He worked in both a semi-abstract style, and a precise realist style; inspired by the work of William Michael Harnett, he painted many ''trompe-l'œil'' still lifes. Several silkscreens from this period are in the Metropolitan Mus ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Hananiah (Samaritan)
Hananiah ben Sanballat was a governor of Samaria under the Achaemenid Empire. He reigned during the mid fourth century BCE. The scholar Frank Moore Cross was involved in the purchase and excavation of ancient papyri at Wadi Daliyeh, preserved by the dry climate. One of the papyri fragments he found included the line "before Hananiah governor of Samaria." Cross dated the line to around 354 BCE, and took it as evidence that someone named Hananiah was governor then, and was possibly the same person as "Hanan the prefect." He also hypothesized that the governorship of Samaria was hereditary, and that Hananiah was the son of "Sanballat II Sanballat II is hypothesized to be a hereditary governor of Samaria under the Achaemenid Empire. If he existed, he reigned during the early and mid fourth century BCE. He is hypothesized to be a grandson of Sanballat the Horonite, who is mentioned ...", a hypothesized other Sanballat. Cross's reconstruction has not been universally accepted, how ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Shadrach, Meshach, And Abednego
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego (Hebrew names Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah) are figures from chapter 3 of the biblical Book of Daniel. In the narrative, the three Jewish men are thrown into a fiery furnace by Nebuchadnezzar II, King of Babylon for refusing to bow to the king's image. The three are preserved from harm and the king sees four men walking in the flames, "the fourth ... like a son of God". They are first mentioned in Daniel 1, where alongside Daniel (biblical figure), Daniel they are brought to Babylon to study Aramaic, Chaldean Aramaic language and literature with a view to serving at the King's court, and their Hebrew language, Hebrew names are replaced with Babylonian names. The first six chapters of Daniel are stories dating from the late Persian/early Hellenistic period, and Daniel's absence from the story of the Hebrew children in the fiery furnace suggests that it may originally have been independent. It forms a pair with the story of Daniel in the lions' d ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Hanina Of Sepphoris
R. Hanina (or Hananiah) of Sepphoris (, read as ''Rabbi Hananiah DeTziporin''; alternative Hebrew spelling: ) sometimes cited merely as R. Hanina ananiah'' or Hanina (Hananiah) II, was an Amora of the Land of Israel (in Byzantine Galilee at the time), of the fifth generation of the Amora era. Biography He was a disciple of Rabbi Mani II. He gradually rose to his master's level and discussed with him as a "fellow student" many halakhic questions. Eventually he moved to Sepphoris, where he became the religious head of the community; hence he is sometimes cited as Hanina of Sepphoris. When Mani also moved to Sepphoris (due to Roman persecutions in Tiberias), Hanina resigned the leadership in his favor—an act of self-abnegation extolled by the Rabbis as having few parallels.MANI |
Haninah Ben Teradion
Rabbi Haninah ben Teradion ( ''Ḥănīnāʾ ben Təraḏyōn'') or Hananiah ( ''Ḥănanyā'') ben Teradion was a rabbi and tanna of the third generation (2nd century). He was a contemporary of Eleazar ben Perata I and of Halafta, together with whom he established certain ritual rules. Known as one of the wealthiest men in Galilee, he also served as the treasurer of a fund for the poor. Following the Bar Kokhba revolt, he was executed by the Romans for ignoring the ban on teaching Torah, and is considered one of the Ten Martyrs. Life and work His residence was at Sikhnin, where he directed religious affairs as well as a school. The latter came to be numbered among the distinguished academies with reference to which a baraitha says: "The saying 'That which is altogether just shall you follow' may be construed, 'Follow the sages in their respective academies. ... Follow Rabbi Haninah ben Teradion in Sikhnin'". Haninah administered the communal charity funds, and so scrupul ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Hanina Ben Hakinai
Hanina ben Hakinai or Hanania ben Hakinai (Hebrew: חנינא בן חכינאי) was a Tanna of the 2nd century; contemporary of Ben 'Azzai and Simeon the Yemenite. Sometimes he is cited as "ben Hakinai". Life The identities his early teachers are not known. From some versions of the Tosefta it appears that Tarfon was one of them, but that his regular teacher was Rabbi Akiva. It is related that he took leave of his wife and attended Akiva 12 or 13 years without communicating with his family, whom he recovered in a remarkable way. He was one of the few who, though not regularly ordained, were permitted to "argue cases before the sages". From a comparatively late date comes the statement that Hananiah b. Ḥakinai was one of the Ten Martyrs. Teachings Several halakhot have been preserved in his name, owing their preservation to Eleazar b. Jacob II. He also left some halakic midrashim. Hananiah delved into the "mysteries of the Creation," concerning which he consulted R. Ak ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Zerubbabel
Zerubbabel ( from ) was, according to the Hebrew Bible, a governor of the Achaemenid Empire's province of Yehud Medinata and the grandson of Jeconiah, penultimate king of Judah. He is not documented in extra-biblical documents, and is considered by Sarah Schulz of the University of Erlangen–Nuremberg as historically plausible, but probably not an actual governor of the province, much like Nehemiah. In the biblical narrative, Zerubbabel led the first group of Jews, numbering 42,360, who returned from the Babylonian captivity in the first year of Cyrus the Great, the king of the Achaemenid Empire.' The date is generally thought to have been between 538 and 520 BC. Zerubbabel also laid the foundation of the Second Temple in Jerusalem soon after. In the New Testament he is included in the genealogy of Jesus. Etymology Zerubbabel means ''seed of Babylon'', showing how quickly the elites integrated into the Babylonian social structure.

Hanina
Rav Hanina (), also known as Hananiah (; sometimes spelled Hananyah), was a second- or third-generation '' amora'' of the Land of Israel. Biography Rav Hanina is noted in tractate Ketubot 56a as a student of Rabbi Yannai, and, in Yevamot 58b and Kiddushin 60a, as a student of Rabbi Yochanan bar Nafcha, as well. He was the scion of a family of great sages, and the brother of R. Hoshaiah Rabbah. Hoshaiah is once referred to as "Rabbi Hoshaiah bar Rabbi Hama", which suggests that Hanina is the same as Hanina bar Hama, though other opinions suggest they were different individuals. Hanina was a bachelor all his life, and together with his brother Hoshaiah sold shoes for prostitutes, and yet they did not raise their eyes to see them. Rava stated that it was with respect to these two brothers that it is said that if a bachelor lives in a city and does not sin, God proclaims his praise every day. Several stories indicate that he had extensive medical knowledge. R. Yochanan bar ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Hanina Segan Ha-Kohanim
Hanina ananyahSegan ha-Kohanim (, lit. ''"R. Hanina (Hananiah) heSegan (Deputy) Ha-Kohanim (High priest)"'') was of the first Generation of the Jewish Tanna sages. He was the father of Rabbi Simeon ben ha-Segan. He commented on what he had seen occur during the destruction of the Second Temple of Jerusalem. The book ''Yihusei Tanna'im ve-Amora'im'' says that he was killed along with Shimon ben Gamliel and Ishmael ben Elisha ha-Kohen. It is also said that he was one of the Ten Martyrs, and was killed on the 25th of Sivan (late spring). Hanina earned his title due to the role he fulfilled - as Deputy to the Kohen Gadol (High priest) in the Temple. Ha-Segan was a position with the responsibility of overseeing the actions of the work of the Temple priest staff, as well as a stand-in position, ready to take the role of High priest in case the incumbent was found unfit to perform his functions on the temple. Hanina was considered a "Segan Ha-Kohanim", only second to the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Hanina Bar Hama
Hanina bar Hama (died c. 250) () was a Jewish Talmudist, halakhist and aggadist frequently quoted in the Babylonian and the Jerusalem Talmud, and in the Midrashim. He is generally cited by the name R. Hanina, but sometimes with his patronymic (Hanina b. Hama), and occasionally with the cognomen "the Great". Biography Whether he was a Judean by birth and had only visited Babylonia, or whether he was a Babylonian immigrant in Judea, cannot be clearly established. In the only passage in which he mentions his arrival in Judea he refers also to his sons accompanying him, and from this some argue that Babylonia was his native land. It is certain, however, that he spent most of his life in Judea, where he attended for a time the lectures of Bar Kappara and Hiyya the Great and eventually joined the academy of Judah haNasi. Under Judah, he acquired great stores of practical and theoretical knowledge, and so developed his dialectical powers that once in the heat of debate with his ...
