Gamaliel IV

Encyclopedia : G : GA : GAM : Gamaliel IV

Gamaliel IV (probably late 3rd Century CE) was the son of the nasi Judah II, and father of Judah III. In the Jerusalem Talmud there is a story of Gamaliel's humility, when he was asked a question about the law by Abbahu, Gamaliel speaks of his own ignorance in comparison with Abbahu. Hoshaiah is said to have prevented Gamaliel from introducing into Syria a ruling referring to the tithing of crops.
