Palestinian amora of the third generation (3d and 4th cent.). Jacob is especially known as a haggadist (Pesiḳ. 4:30b; Gen. R. 32:5; Yer. Ber. 5:2; Yer. Ta'an. 1:1), but most of his haggadic sayings have been transmitted only by his pupils and successors. Once (Pesiḳ. R. 33 [ed. Friedmann, p. 153b]) his name occurs as "Jacob of Kefar Hananiah."
