THE MISHNAH IN TA'ANIT
In our calendar, there are four fast days which directly relate to the destruction of the Beit haMikdash and Yerushalayim under the Babylonians during the latter half of the sixth century BCE:
- Asarah b'Tevet (Tevet 10 - in the winter), when the siege of the city by the Babylonians began;
- Shiv'ah 'Asar b'Tammuz (Tammuz 17 - summer), when the walls of the city were breached, several years after the beginning of the siege;
- Tish'ah b'Av (Av 9 - summer), when the Beit haMikdash was destroyed by the Babylonians.
- Tzom G'daliah (Tishri 3 - fall) when the Judean governor was assassinated in an Ammonite-generated plot. This brought about the end of Jewish autonomy under the Babylonians.
