The Nazis dehumanized all the Jew, so all the Jew wouldn't have any power by calling the Jews not by their names but their number, calling the them animals, and not giving food to the people who need it.

Being the last sentence of the book, and out of all the passages I highlighted this one stood out to me and described Wiesel’s experience in just a few simple sentence. He looked at himself for the first time in many years, and did not recognize himself he saw a different person. This showed me that the concentration camps changed him he was a different person inside and out. The events that occurred to him had scared him so much that the man he saw in the mirror wasn’t him, but one who had been drained of life that looked lifeless from the events occurred in the concentration camps. He was weak and this whole passage embodies his weakness and the whole point of the concentration camps.

Through Elie's story, I gained lots of knowledge towards the horrors of the Holocaust and the importance of standing up to evil. The story of Elie’s struggle to survive and the journey that he went through to reclaim his faith is an important reminder of the importance and hope in the face of adversity. It is a reminder that during our darkest and lowest days hope is not lost or gone and that goodness and that strength can triumph over evil.

In the beginning of Night, Elie has a strong faith in himself and his god, celebrating Rosh Hashanah with his community and family as jews while the German soldiers come in order to try and take power over the jews. The community gathered in private homes with every rabbi’s home becoming a house of prayer in order to not anger the German soldiers. Following the bible’s commands they drank,ate, and sang even when their hearts were not into it due to the Jews, but they still sang due to their strong faith and love for their god during each of the eight days of the Rosh Hashanah celebration. Then all of a sudden on the seventh day of Passover the curtain finally rose as the Germans arrested the Jew leaders from that moment on Elies life and faith changed through each day his life never returning to the joyful and peaceful way it was and his faith forever diminished,broken, and shattered.

This is an example of how Jews practiced their religion because he is continuing to practice his religion and help others practice theirs.

That was impenetrable thing on them not wanting his dad go to the death march. In the conclusion of life in the sequence that they all go through can be devastating because knowing your family could vanish in the matter of a second and your life on the stake can be very frightening. In the story Night, Elie uses variations of different contrast between everyone at the camp. The story Night can tell you all the consequences and hard times that they had in their uneven life.

The “darkness of night” suggests the pressure evil of the world and the absence of hope. Elie and everyone that was in the camp with him was not only physically changed but mentally. After they get liberated and when the “gates… opened …an even darker night was waiting for us.” (p. 54) Even though the prisoners have physically left the concentration camp.

Night represented a time where many grueling affairs happened to the people around Elie, even those who were innocent and unchanging.
