Jakob Brüll
Jakob Brüll ( Jakob b. Michael Brüll ; born November 16, 1812 in Neu-Raussnitz , Moravia , † November 29, 1889 in Kojetein ) was a rabbi and a Talmudic capacity.
From 1843 until his death he worked as a rabbi in Kojetein, where he developed a lively research and writing activity and gathered a circle of students, among them David Kaufmann .
His most important work is the introduction to the Mishnah in two parts (1876 and 1885), of which the first part brings biographies and teaching methods of the Tannaites with historical reference back to Ezra , the second part gives extensive structural studies of the text of the Mishnah.
Jakob Brüll was married to Regine Rivka (Rebecca), b. Trebitsch (1812–1898), a daughter of the Moravian Oberlandesrabbi Neremias (Nahum) Trebitsch (1779–1842). The rabbi and scientist Nahum (Nehemias) Brüll (1843-1891) and the religious educator and scientist Adolf (Elhanan) Brüll (1846-1908) were his sons. The third child in the family was their daughter Johanna Brüll (1848–1922).
