Elie Wiesel Reflection

Hitler had dozens of camps in Germany, the biggest one was Auschwits, where millions of people have died. The Nazi wanted more power, they were very aggressive and invaded many countries. Elie Wiesel, the author the autobiography Night shares what it was like and what he had to go through during the Holocaust. One important part of Night is Elie's relationship with his father. In the book, Elie feels close to his father, but after time they start to fall apart.

The prisoners of the concentration camps are constantly tortured and neglected by the German officers who run the camps. The cruelty of the German officers at the concentration camps change Elie’s personality throughout the novel. At the beginning of the novel, Elie is deeply religious and spends most of his time studying Judaism. However, by the end of the novel, Elie believes that God has been unjust to him and all the other Jews, and has lost most of his faith. The cruelty of the German officers also changed the other Jews as well.

The purpose of this memoir is to show how unforgettable and how cruel Hitler was. How it was ingrained into his memory. The scene of the gallows, the hanging of the bodies he witnessed, and how traumatized Wiesel was during that scene in his life. "And from within me, I heard a voice answer: "Where he is? This is where—hanging here from this gallows..."(Night, Elie Wiesel) By including this memoir in his biography it serves a purpose as his memory and what went on in the concentration camps.

According to Jewish religion, fully repentance was really important for them to determine whether a person deserve forgiveness. As Wiesenthal’s friend Bolek mentioned in the book “In our religion repentance is the most element in seeking forgiveness” (Wiesenthal 83)”. From this quote we could conclude that any person who was deeply repentance was eligible to ask for forgiveness. Therefore, firstly we should decide whether Karl was truly sorry about the mistake he has made. It was important to note that if he was not truly regret about his fault, he would not find someone who might hate him so much according to his identity as a Nazi soldier to confess his sin when he was dying.

The Concept of Religion and the Study of the Apostle Paul. 7. Saul’s grew up as a devoted and a master of the Jewish religion. His love and devotion to his religion made him resent the followers of the ‘new way.’ He decides to prosecute arrest and even kill Christian. One day, while on a trip to Damascus, a bright light shone on him.

Isaiah 53 should be a very critical prophetic chapter of the Bible when it comes to establishing without ambiguity that Jesus Christ of Nazareth is indeed the Jewish Messiah long awaited for in Judaism. Popular in evangelical circles, this prophecy clearly describes some of what Jesus of Nazareth experienced while here on earth. Contrary to the systematic way the translation of the Word of God has been divided, my belief is that this prophecy began in Chapter 52:13 and continued until Chapter 53:11. Although this passage clearly talks about the suffering messiah Jesus, we know that the Jews in general rejected Him as the Messiah and are still awaiting for the messiah to come although He came 2000 years ago. This prophecy begins in verse 13 to 15 of chapter 52 and describes the Messiah as one who would be firstly wise.

This passage gives us a challenge to us as Christians to preach the good news of Christ every day, everywhere and helps though saying I will repent tomorrow no one about next day only Christ. What happened if you die midnight before repent means hell is your place that you are going because u failed to repent in time. The good place is there but for those doing and following the will of God, so men’s of Athens they supposed to give more thanks to God sent Paul to them. Because we are now living in world full with works of devil needs the grace of God daily for us to survive, without it we die. Through his teachings Paul told them about the resurrection Jesus Christ that they mighty repent and believe in him.

This quote shows how strongly he believed before experiencing the hardships of the Holocaust and it changed him. In the book, Night, the main theme, is religion and belief which is shown when Elie talks about the his strong religion and belief as a boy, his disconnection from religion, and the inhumane actions the Nazi 's caused. Having such a strong belief in something and then dramatically changing how you think, is a very significant event. During this time, many people questioned where God truly was. Even Elie was questioning where God was.

“Have you ever wondered what a human life is worth? That morning, my brothers was worth a pocket watch.” This quote from Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys was the beginning of a changing moment in my life. I never knew that at the age of 15 a book would change my life so much. Between Shades of Gray followed the story of a young Lithuanian girl and her family being ripped away from their home and being forced into a concentration camp in Siberia by the Soviet dictator, Joseph Stalin. Up until that point of my life the only genocide we had ever been taught was the Holocaust which specifically targeted Jewish families at the hands of Adolf Hitler.

Motivated to consider seizing Jesus, they feared the public’s reaction. Who is Jesus speaking to? Jesus is teaching to people in the temple when the chief priests, scribes and elders approach and challenge Him (Mark 11:27-33). The Parable of the Tenants is Jesus’ second consecutive parable directed at the Jewish religious leaders, which they understood and were quite angry. However, the parable could well be directed at other Jews who shared the same views as their religious leaders.

Throughout Elie Wiesel’s Night, his character changes. These changes were in response to his hostile environment. Wiesel was forced to adapt, causing him to lose his identity and his religion. Wiesel’s character was introduced as a devout follower of Judaism. He sought out opportunities to grow and strengthen his faith.

Change in perspective can happen over a long period of time through cruel events which alters a person’s perspective on certain things. Night is a novel that takes you on a journey of emotions there were many tragedies that Elie had went through. The memoir showed how the author was going through many phases such as the incident where he witnessed his father being struck down by a kapo, and when he saw the children’s being burnt in the crematorium which is the first time he had lost his faith in god. All of these events had lead the change of his perspective. The narrator of this memoir, Elie Wiesel had suffered enough tragedies which turned him into a different person.

The expedition Elie Wiesel endured amid the, in my opinion, inexplicable Holocaust subsists in Night. Aforementioned, all information established in Night predicates on real-life occurrences recited by Elie. In the Jews ' time of peril and prejudice, a Jewish family is condemned to congregate with other Jewish families in concentration camps; where they deviate from their spiritual life and become emaciated thralls of the Schutzstaffel. Eliezer, the protagonist of the story, struggles to conserve his faith in a benevolent God throughout the Holocaust; but he emerged with his religious devotion tainted, yet intact. Night is a chronicle substantiating his trek of the Holocaust from labor to liberation, amidst this journey, Eliezer and the surrounding

A person’s faith is given to the one, that is most believed in, and for this Elie’s faith was given to God and so was many other’s faith. However, according to all of the those specific Jews their faith was placed in the wrong hands, so many of them lose their faith throughout the story. Elie at the start of the book “Night” was a Jew, in a family that deeply believed in God for a considerable amount of their life. For example, in the book “Night” Elie had much faith in God; however, after arriving at the concentration camp his entire view of the world changed. Consequently, he was becoming a different person, and he had lost faith in God.

Who could have thought that the victims were most responsible for the Holocaust? After all, they were the targets of this abominable act; 6 million Jews, 9-18 million Soviets, 1.8 million Poles, and more groups with fewer casualties. This book, Night, is a memoir about a Jewish prisoner that goes by the name of Elie Wisel that survived this ordeal. After all, they had many opportunities to escape, repeal, or act. The people who chose not to do anything till it was too late are responsible for the Holocaust.
