Who is Simeon ben Zoma?
Simon ben Zoma or simply Ben Zoma was a Tanna of the first third of the 2nd century. His full name is Simon ben Zoma without the title "Rabbi", for, like Ben Azzai, he remained in the grade of "pupil," and is often mentioned together with Ben Azzai as a distinguished representative of this class. Like Ben Azzai, also, he seems to have belonged to the inner circle of Joshua ben Hananiah's disciples, and a halakic controversy between them is reported in which Ben Zoma was the victor.
