| − | '''Rabbi Dosa ben Harkinas''' was a first generation Tana who was very wealthy. He lived a long life, passing away roughly 60 years after the destruction of the 2nd Temple. Rabbi Dosa ben Harkinas was friends with [[Rabbi Yochanan ben Zakkai|Rabbi Yochanan ben Zakki]] and [[Rabbi Azariah|Rabbi Azarya]]. Rabbi Yonason ben Harkinas was his younger brother.

| − | ===Incident of the New Moon===
| |
| − | Once two witnesses testified before Raban Gamliel claiming they had spotted the new moon for the month of Teshrai. Although the next night it was nowhere to be seen, he accepted their "for how can one testify that a woman gave birth, yet the next day she was seen still pregnant". When [[Rabbi Yehoshua ben Chananya|Rabbi Yehoshua]] agreed with Rabbi Dosa, Rabban Gamliel felt the still fragile 'post Temple destruction' leadership was at risk of splintering. He decreed upon Rabbi Yehshua to come before him on Yom Kippor, as it came out according to his calculations and desecrate it by carrying his money and walking stick.

| |
| − | Rabbi Yehshua came to Rabbi Dosa who advised him to listen to Rabban Gamliel bringing proof from the members of [[Moshe Rabbenu|Moshe's]] Beit Din, whose names are not mentioned in the Torah. This comes to teach us that the Beis Din of each generation is equivalent to Moshe's. Meaning, had it mentioned the members names, one could argue that any later judges were of lesser stature, however since they remain unidentified, it can be argued that they are equivalent. Therefore if one debates the rulings of Rabban Gamliel's Beit Din, one should debate the rulings of each Bais Din that stood since the days of Moshe. Rabbi Yehushua accepted his advice and subdued himself in front of Rabban Gamliel.

| − | Rabbi Dosa ben Harkinas is buried in [[Safed|Tzafas]] on the slope of the [[Metzuda-of-Safed|Metzudah hill]] in the [[Cave of Shem and Ever]].

Occasionally the outer cave is opened to visitors but the inner cave containing the kever remains locked.
