Solomon ibn Adret (ca. 1235–1310), known by his initials as the Rashba, was one of the foremost scholars of his time. He studied under Jonah Abraham Gerondi and Nahmanides, becoming one of his outstanding students and a principal exponent of his school in the interpretation of the Talmud. He served as a rabbi in Barcelona for more than forty years and by the age of forty, was recognized as the leading figure in Spanish Jewry. Questions were addressed to Adret from all parts of the world, including Germany, France, Bohemia, Sicily, Crete, Morocco, Algiers, Palestine and Portugal.
