Rav Adda bar Ahavah was a Talmudist who lived in Babylonia, known as an amora of the second generation (third and fourth centuries), frequently quoted in both the Jerusalem and the Babylonian Talmuds.
Nor did I prepare a bed for myself to enjoy regular sleep, nor did I disturb my colleagues by walking to my seat at college among them.
Anger against my neighbor never went to bed with me, and I never passed the street near where my debtor lived; and while at home I never betrayed impatience, in order to observe what is said:[4] "I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.
"[7] In talmudic legend, Rav Adda's piety was purportedly so highly valued by heaven that no favor asked by him was ever refused.
Therefore, he invited Rav Adda into the building, and there engaged him in legal discussions until the task of removing its contents was safely accomplished; hardly had the rabbis vacated the premises when the tottering walls fell.
