Brest (Brisk in Yiddish), a border city between Poland, Lithuania, and Belarus, was one of the oldest and most prestigious centers of Talmudic scholarship in Eastern Europe. It is associated with the Soloveitchik rabbinical dynasty and the "Brisk method," an analytical approach to the Talmud that lastingly shaped Ashkenazi rabbinical study. Its Jews, long a majority in the city, were merchants, artisans, and scholars, and the community possessed numerous synagogues and institutions of study. Under German occupation, the ghetto was established and then liquidated, and virtually the entire Jewish population was massacred in 1941–1942.
