Judah the Prince, Rabbi: (Circa 135-219 CE) Known as Rabbenu Hakadosh (“our holy master”) or simply as “Rabbi.” One of the last Mishnaic sages, he recorded, edited, and organized statements of earlier sages, forming the Mishnah, setting the Oral Law in writing for the first time. He was phenomenally wealthy and was a close friend of the Roman Emperor Antoninus.
