Rammi bar Abba [1] (= an abbreviation of R. Ammi bar Abba [2] [3]), or Rammi bar Abba I, [4] was a third generation Amora sage of Babylonia.
He cites the teachings of Rav Huna, who was probably his teacher. He had many aggadic teachings. [5]
He transmitted to his generation many enactments of R. Jose ben Halafta in Sepphoris, among them:
- A woman shall not walk in the street while her son is behind her, owing to an incident that once happened, when immoral men kidnapped a child which was following his mother, and she was searching for him, then they lured her into a house, telling her he was there, and there assaulted her. [6]
- Women while in the closet should talk to one another for the sake of privacy from the intrusion of men, [6] which is illegal due to the prohibition of Yichud.
