Según la tradición judía durante este mes debe invadirnos un espíritu de tristeza al coincidir con fatídicas fechas, entre ellas la destrucción de Jerusalén y del primer y segundo Templo a manos del Imperio Babilónico y Romano respectivamente.

Relato histórico:

1º acto
Con la muerte del Rey #Josías de #Judá en el año 609 a.E.C. a manos de los egipcios la plena soberanía judía desapareció por completo. Sin embargo #Egipto no gozaría mucho de esta victoria. En el año 605 a.E.C. #Nabucodonosor II derrotó a los egipcios en la Batalla de #Carquemis.
