Rabbi Akiva
Rabbi Akiva was a prominent Jewish sage and one of the most important figures in the development of Jewish law and ethics during the late 1st and early 2nd centuries CE. Born as a shepherd, he began his formal education at the age of 40 and became a leading authority in the Mishnah, a foundational text of Rabbinic Judaism. His teachings emphasized the importance of love and compassion, famously stating, 'Love your neighbor as yourself' as a fundamental principle. Akiva was also a martyr during the Roman persecutions, and his legacy continues to influence Jewish thought and practice today.
