Rav Huna b. Chiya
Sources
A
The Gemara relates that one
time
the Sages
needed Rav Huna bar Ḥiyya
for a certain matter.
Rabba and Rav Yosef and four hundred pairs of Sages ascended to his
home. When
he heard that they were coming,
he
tied
for
them four hundred chairs [
takhtekei
]
to sit on.
Eventually
the Sages
heard that he had become
a tax
collector. They sent him
the following message:
Go to your
important position as a tax collector, and
go to your former
status, as we no longer need you…
Bekhorot 31a:5
