Abraham ben Saul Broda (Hebrew: אברהם בן שאול ברודא; c. 1640 – 11 April 1717) was a Bohemian Talmudist (Talmudforscher).
Saul Broda sent his son to Kraków to pursue his Talmudic studies with Rabbi Isaac ben Ze'eb Ḥarif of that city, in order to withdraw him from what he considered the evil influences of Shabbethaism, at that time spreading throughout Bohemia.
Hence, when the office of chief rabbi of Prague became vacant about 1693, it was offered to Broda, who accepted it, although it was probably not very remunerative in consequence of the great fire of 1689, which impoverished many members of the congregation.
The documents available are conflicting as to the date of his entry into office; but the contract of the community of Metz with Broda, dated 30 October 1708, has been discovered by Kaufmann, from which it is evident that Broda went to Metz in 1709, as claimed by Eliakim Carmoly, and not in 1703, as Cahen assumed.
Here, as at Raudnitz and Prague, Broda's chief activity consisted in founding and directing a yeshibah; it is said that he had an excellent method of initiating into the style of the Talmud those who had never before pursued such study.
