Through the traumatizing punishments and lifestyle of concentration camps, a faithful and loyal boy metamorphosed into a selfish and unfaithful man. Early on in his childhood, Elie was immensely devoted to his faith, so far as “...finding a master... in the person of Moishe the Beadle”(Wiesel 4). To have a master meant that he would have a religious mentor to help him study Kabbalah, thus allowing him to interpret the Bible for himself.

In the book we realize the author is using a phrase over and over again(repetition)to show a tone in the book, and the phrase he uses to show the tone is “Never shall I forget”.

That’s all I ask of you. No money.

In "Night," Elie Wiesel talks about Eliezer during World War II's Holocaust period.

The texts says, “Never shall I forget those flames that consumed my faith forever ”(Wiesel 37). What this quote shows is throughout the time when Elie was at the concentration camp he saw the way people were being burned alive and thrown into the flames. This shows interactions by how the Jews were treated in a negative way.

If someone was at a point in their life where they had endless suffering and all they needed to have faith is one piece of perseverance. To think that glimmer of hope would be. I think that the Jews would do anything for a glimmer of hope to take their minds off of the death that was happening all around them. For most people, the sign of hope would be the cannons going off because that showed that the battlefield was growing closer to the Jews that gave hope that the Germans were being pushed back and that shows the desperation that the Jews were in. People find the perseverance to have the strength and believe that the end was near so that the Jews could be liberated and rescued.
