When Shimon the Righteous died, he said to them, 'My son Chonio will serve in my place, because he was skilled and familiar in the work more than all his brothers.'" - Rabbi Ovadiah of Bartnura, Tractate Menachot 13, and also: 'Until I was a child of sixteen years, I was already old, skilled and familiar with all his ways.' - H. Hazaz / Man from Israel, 175)
