His name was adopted from a jewish name Rabbi. Rabbi (pronunciation: [rəb.biː], although in English usually [ræ.bai]), in Judaism, means a religious ‘teacher’, or more literally, ‘my great one’, when addressing any master. The word rabbi derives from the Hebrew root word rav, which in biblical Hebrew means ‘great’, used in many senses, including the sense of a ‘master’ and apprentice, whence someone who is a distinguished ‘teacher’. Other varieties of pronunciation are rəvī, rubbī.

Originally in Hebrew, rabbi (‘my Master’) was a proper term of address while speaking to a superior, in the second person similar to a vocative case. While speaking about a superior, in the third person, one could say Ha-Rav (‘the Master’) or Rabbo (‘his Master’). Later, the term evolved into a formal title for members of the Patriarchate, where it no longer means ‘my’ Master.

Rabbi is currently working in Don Bosco Matriculation School, Egmore as a High Tech Librarian. "This Library is one such kind which you would have never seen before in any of the Indian Schools" admired the Inspector of Matriculation Schools, Chennai during one of his visits. Rabbi has implemented some Brain Gym activities during the last academic year in the school by enabling the boys to work out their own IQ levels with Brain Labs as well as increased their mental and intellectual capabilities by various other brain games and puzzles. Apart from all these, this library has some sophisticated encyclopedias and world books embedded in each system to enrich the boys with knowledge. Most importantly, the library goes "Live Online" from the forthcoming academic year so that the boys could access even the digital resources through the high speed internet facility.But keeping in mind all the high tech facilities, the school stands firm in its stance that this library is in no way substitute for the books and reading. "We only provide better platform or rather modern medium to make the students develop their habit of reading" says convincingly Fr. Stanly Igantius, the Prinicipal of the well renowned educational giant Don Bosco Matricualtion School, Egmore. Please visit the School website for more details:www.dbegmore.com
