Rabbi Abba bar Memel (or Mamal[1]), or Abba mar Memel,[2] (Hebrew: רבי אבא בר ממל or אבא מר ממל) was a rabbi of the Land of Israel of the second and third generation of amoraim.
He is mentioned often in discussions with the Amora sages of Tiberias Beit Midrash, headed by R. Yochanan bar Nafcha[3] and his students, R. Abbahu, R. Eleazar ben Pedat,[4] and his main scholarly opponent, Rav Zeira.[5] He is also mentioned along with Rabbi Ammi[6] and Rabbi Assi[7] who were considered his masters, probably after the death of R. Yochanan bar Nafcha.
