Son of the pious R. Tzadok, Rabbi Elazar (Eliezer) b. Tzadok was a scholar who had a business partnership in Jerusalem with Abba Shaul. He lived there before and during its destruction, and subsequently spent much time at the court of Rabban Gamliel of Yavneh. Many of this teachings were based on his memory of what he experienced in those contexts.
