Amora, plural Amoraim, (from the Hebrew language root ''amar'' "to say" or "tell over"), were renowned Jewish scholars who "said" or "told over" the teachings of the Oral law, from about 200 to 500 CE in Babylonia and Palestine (region). Their legal discussions and debates were eventually codification in the Gemara. The first and foremost Babylonian Amora was Abba Arika, respectfully referred to as ''Rav''. His contemporary and frequent debate partner was Samuel of Nehardea. The foremost Amoraim in Palestine were Jonathan bar Nappaha and Simeon ben Lakish. Codification of the Gemara began at the end of the fourth century by Ashi and is generally thought to have been completed by 500 CE. Other Amoraim include: * Abaye * Rava * Abbahu ==External link== * http://www.ucalgary.ca/~elsegal/TalmudMap/Gemara.html Talmud rabbis Judaism Rabbis
