Gedaliah , autonomous governor of Judea, assassinated
The 3rd of Tishrei (acknowledged this year on September 21, 2009,) Gedaliah , autonomous governor of Judea, assassinated; remnant of Jewish population in Eretz Yisrael exiled.
Tishrei 3rd is a fast day mourning the assassination of the Jewish royal Gedaliah ben Achikam, governor of the Land of Israel for a short period following the destruction of the First Temple. Gedaliah's killing spelled the end of the small remnant of a Jewish community that remained in the Holy Land after the destruction, which fled to Egypt. (According to many opinions, the assassination of Gedaliah actually occurred on Rosh Hashanah, but the commemoration of the event is postponed to the day after the festival).
