How Does Eliezer Changed

We see this when Eliezer’s father sees him laying down and wakes him up before he falls asleep to his own death, but we do not see Eliezer willing to do that for his own father. But he does regret letting his father die when he knew his father would have done anything to keep his son alive, so we see Eliezer feeling guilty about his decision. I think that is why he wrote some of this book so that his father could be remembered and the sacrifice his father made for

Religion. A strong word for some and an everyday term for others. To Eliezer Wiesel religion meant everything, at least that’s how it was prior to the holocaust. While Wiesel was at the appalling concentration camp his faith for God began to dwindle with every reprehensible event Eliezer was included in. While dwelling upon the relationship that Wiesel had with God throughout the novel Night I have come to the conclusion that Wiesel's experience at Auschwitz has stripped him of his faith for the lord.

Elie had to focus on himself if he wanted to survive though, his feet were aching but he adapted to the pain and kept running. Elie just wanted to fall to the ground and be done with everything, die. He wanted all the pain and suffering to be over with. But his fathers presence was the only that that stopped him. Elie was his fathers motivation and fuel to keep staying alive.

Furthermore, Elie is a strong individual who went through something no one should ever have to go through. This experience he underwent had a major impact on him. In fact, he went from a young boy who had the world in the palm of his hand to someone he probably

He decided not to be mean, rude, or selfish. Instead he was happy and joyful about everything he done for the rest of his life, because he wanted to try his hardest to make people not remember him in the past. When Ebenezer decided to change his attitude his life turned upside down, because the people in his town felt the joy from his cheerful

The had hope in each other if nothing else. Unlike the others Elie never wanted to leave his father. He wanted to stay with him no matter what. He even slapped him to wake him

To no longer exist.” That statement proves that it wasn’t that ELiezer was afraid to die instead he wanted to so he could be put out of his misery of living in a concentration camp. Throughout the march Eliezer described himself running by saying, “I was putting one foot in front of the other, like a machine.

Eliezer loses all of his hope, trust, and beliefs. He becomes even more reliant on himself than anyone else because he now knows that only he can help himself and no one else. Elie has shut himself off from from other people and his faith. "

So he provided for and helped his father even sharing his rations when he was on his deathbed and couldn’t move. Elie and his father's goal of surviving the Holocaust weren’t completely successful. In the end, his efforts were futile. His father dies and he’s left alone for the remainder of his time in the camp and has to survive on his

By the end of the novel things were not going very well, especially when his father unfortunately died. That was when, Elie truly has changed once and for all as a person. “No prayers were said over his tomb. No candle lit in his memory. His last word had been my name.

The empathy he felt for his father is what drove him to stay alive, to fight for his life. Without his father, he would have given into exhaustion long before the American tanks arrived at the camp. Elie's father gave him strength, therefore giving him resilience. Strong people are resilient people; it took everything Elie had to keep himself alive. In the times he wanted so badly just to lie down, to give up it was his father's presence which kept him alive.

Elie 's inaction or inability to help his father and his guilt for not doing so helped Elie to shape the person he has become now is because he kept on realizing his stand on the situation on the harsh behavior towards his father. As he starts to live more with his father he became started to realize how important he was to him and how important he is for him. In the book Night, Chapter 7, when Elie and his after were on the cattle car he said"My father had huddled near me, draped in his blanket, shoulders laden with snow. And what if he were dead as well? I called out to him.

Eliezer was very close to god and wanted to learn anything he could. Once he was taken away from his home, he began losing faith in god and lost all hope. Eliezer stopped praying and he believed that god was unjust. Eliezer felt as though god was uncaring and so he stopped believing in him. His view on god changed juristically throughout Night.

Elizer always looked after his father’s safety and well being but shortly before his father dies, he begins to care less and less about himself and his father: “I had no more tears. And in the depths of my being, in the recesses of my weakened conscience, could I have searched it, I might perhaps have found something like—free at last!” (106) Eliezer states that their first act as freed men is not to think of revenge, they only think about food. This quote shows that, though Elie has lost his identity so much to the point where he could become a wild animal, he still manages to keep the human instinct of survival. He some way or another pushed past the Nazi brutality to survive hunger, torment, and distress.

Elie had the perseverance to keep functioning even after encountering something so terrible. Losing his family was only one one of the barriers he had to overcome. Without a family, it made the experience a
