Step 1: Preheat oven to 350F.
Step 2: Trim fat off brisket.
Step 3: Slice garlic into thin pieces; and using a paring knife, insert knife into brisket to create little pockets for the garlic, and insert garlic into the pockets.
Step 4: Sprinkle brisket with cumin, cinnamon and sea salt.
Step 5: Place brisket into a roasting pan.
Step 6: Add onions, carrots, red wine, tomato sauce and fresh thyme around the brisket.
Step 7: Add enough water to come about three-quarters they way up the sides of the brisket.
Step 8: Cover with parchment paper and tinfoil (tinfoil does no react well with the acidity in tomatoes, so the parchment paper should fully cover the beef).
Step 9: Bake for 3 hours.
Step 10: Take brisket out of the oven, remove the meat, and let rest on a cutting board.
Step 11: Place the baking dish over medium heat on the stovetop to thicken the tomato sauce, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 12: While sauce thickens, slice brisket against the grain.
Step 13: Serve warm, topped with tomato sauce.
