  • Bnei Bathyra (Hebrew: בני בתירא, lit. "The Sons of Bathyra"; Also referred to in the Jerusalem Talmud as זקני בתירא, lit. "The Elders of Bathyra") were a family of Jewish sages who were religious leaders around the period of the Destruction of the Second Temple. This family is known for its many important Jewish Sages over the course of several generations. Some tannaim are considered to belong to this family; the best known of these is Judah ben Bathyra, who resided in Nusaybin west to Babylon. According to Heinrich Graetz, the family is named after the city Batira (בטירא), near Mount Hermon, which was settled by Herod and gave its name to the settlers. However, others disagree with this assessment, as the story involving the family and Hillel the Elder (in which the family is already established as leaders in Jerusalem) takes place near the beginning of Herod's reign, leading to a chronological difficulty. According to the Talmud, in about 30 BCE they served as leaders of the Sanhedrin. However, they were unable to remember the law regarding whether the Passover sacrifice is offered when the 14th of Nisan falls out on Shabbat. Hillel the Elder was able to answer the question for them, and as a result they were demoted from their position and Hillel took their place. As two brothers were not allowed to serve on the Sanhedrin at the same time, this suggests that the phrase "Sons of Bathyra" was not a patronymic, but a family name (nomen gentilicium). About 100 years later, the sons of Bathyra are recorded disputing with Johanan ben Zakkai whether the shofar should be blown when Rosh Hashana falls on Shabbat. Since this takes place about 100 years after the story involving Hillel, the sons of Bathyra mentioned here must have been descendants of the earlier leaders of the Sanhedrin, who probably still retained some of their ancestors' reputation.

  • Bnei Bathyra (hébreu : בני בתירא), littéralement les Enfants de Bathyra, était une famille de sages juifs qui ont été florissants à partir d'une trentaine d'années av. J.-C. pendant une période d'environ 400 ans. Selon le Talmud, lors de leur première intervention les sages de la famille — appelés les Anciens de Bathyra — ont élevé Hillel le Babylonien au rang de patriarche, alors qu'ils étaient les dirigeants d'un sanhédrin. Des « Bnei Bathyra » sont encore connus à l'époque de la destruction du deuxième Temple de Jérusalem et au cours de l'ère des Tannaïm (début de l'ère commune jusque vers 200). Cette famille est connue pour ses nombreux sages juifs importants sur plusieurs générations. Dans le judaïsme, les sages de la famille sont considérés comme « Gedolei Hador » (Grands de cette génération), faisant donc partie des géants intellectuels du judaïsme de cette époque, y compris après la destruction du Second Temple. Ils sont aussi connus pour avoir occupé une place de choix parmi les Sages de l'Académie de Yabneh. Le consensus général attribue des Tannaïm à cette famille dont le plus célèbre est Judah ben Bathyra, qui, avant la destruction du Second Temple, a résidé à Nisibe en Adiabène. Un territoire du nord de la Mésopotamie, région qui dans les sources juives est située à l'ouest de la « Babylonie ». Il s'agit vraisemblablement de ceux que Flavius Josèphe appelle des « Babyloniens », qui ont été installés en Batanée par Hérode le Grand et y ont fondé la ville de Bathyra, ainsi que de leurs descendants. Toutefois cette identification est contestée par certains critiques. (fr)
  • Bnei Bathyra (in ebraico: בני בתירא‎?, lett. "I Figli di Bathyra"; citati nel Talmud di Gerusalemme come זקני בתירא, lett. "Gli Anziani di Bathyra") era una famiglia di saggi ebraici che per un certo periodo di tempo furono alla guida del popolo ebraico, durante la Distruzione del Secondo Tempio - nell'era dei Zugot e vicino all'inizio dell'era dei Tannaim. Questa famiglia è nota per aver dato alla storia ebraica molti Saggi importanti nel corso di diverse generazioni. Cento anni prima della distruzione del Secondo Tempio, la discendenza di questi capi rabbinici venne rimpiazzata da Rabbi Hillel il Vecchio e sua dinastia. I Saggi Bnei Bathyra sono considerati "Gedolei Hador", i grandi eruditi del mondo religioso di questa epoca, anche dopo la distruzione del Secondo Tempio, e sono rinomati per aver tenuto una posizione prominente tra i Saggi di Yavne. Si crede che alcuni Tannaim siano appartenuti a questa famiglia, uno dei quali sarebbe Judah ben Bathyra, che risiedeva a Nusaybin, a ovest di Babilonia. (it)
