9 Kislev

The Chessed LeAvraham (of Slonim) brings from the Brit Menucha that the ninth hour of the ninth day of the ninth month is the "channel of all shefa."

9 Kislev 5155 - 1394:

The Jews of Paris were expelled by King Charles VI.
Charles VI ascended to the French throne in 1380 and announced he will not expel the Jews. Screaming “Aux Juifs” a mob plunders and commits murders in the Jewish quarter in Paris for four days. Some Jews take refuge in the royal prison. Hughes Abriot, the Provost, obtained an order for restitution of all property and the return of all infants forcibly baptized. Because of this, he was later accused of converting to Judaism and sent to jail for a year.

9 Kislev 5580 - November 27, 1819:

Founding of the Verein fuer Cultur und Wissenschaft der Juden, (The Society for Culture and Science of Judaism) by Leopold Zuns and Eduard Gans, whose goal was to reduce Judaism to a field of study.

9 Kislev 5675 - November 27, 1914:

The American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (known the “Joint” or “JDC”) was founded. The organization campaigned on behalf of Jews and distributed funds wherever Jews were in need, especially in Eastern Europe.

9 Kislev 5701 - December 9, 1940:

A boatload of 1,600 Jewish immigrants fleeing Hitler's ovens was denied entry by the British into the port of Haifa; deporting them to the island of Mauritius. This was part of the British enforcement of the White Paper that effectively ended Jewish immigration to Eretz Israel. The British had acceded to Arab demands and restricted Jewish immigration into Palestine. The urgent plight of European Jewry generated an "illegal" immigration movement, but the British were vigilant in denying entry. Some ships, such as the Struma, sunk and their hundreds of passengers killed. When you consider how strapped the British were for resources in fighting Hitler, it is amazing that the government in London could find the resources to intercept vessels sailing to Palestine..

9 Kislev 5704 - December 6, 1943:

In one of the last major Italian deportations, 212 Jews from Milan and Verona were sent to Auschwitz. In all, out of a population of 35,000 before the war, approximately 8500 Jews were killed, Hy"d. An estimated 2000 Jews fought with the partisans, five of them winning Italy's highest medals for bravery.

9 Kislev 5738 - November 19, 1977:

Visit of Egyptian President Anwar Sadat to Yerushalayim. See 10 Kislev.
