Night is one of those many books that summarizes what Jews had to go through during World War 2. A boy named Elie Wiesel is who takes us back in time to look back on those moments of trouble for many people. Elie meets a very special boy named Moshe the Beadle, who is constantly praying and seeking answers from God.
Personally, I agree with Moshe because God leads us to the path to find the answers we are looking for on our own. When we are in times of trial, we might draw away from God and doubt his strength to help us in our path. Even though it is understandable in times of trial, you should never doubt that God will be with you. When it comes to war, I can't understand it and want it to end as fast as possible. Perhaps Moshe was feeling confused and doubtful because the Jews hadn't done anything to the Germans to cause conflict. The Jews, even though they had the equipment and the people, they decided to leave to avoid hurting those who they didn't have a conflict with. I think they should have fought back, make their voices be heard and rebel. The Jews were innocent and there was no reason to harm them. Maybe God let the war happen to test whether the Jews were still faithful and would rely on Him.
Night is somehow connected with the Book of Job because when Job, who was faithful and loyal to God, lost everything, he still believed in God and believed He was next to Job. On the other hand, Moshe was confused and started doubting God's powers when the Germans were attacking the Jews. Both characters started off the same, but when Moshe sees the tragedy they are going through, he draws away from God and stops seeking for answers. For example, at first Moshe says " Man questions God and God answers But we don't understand His answers. You will find the true answers only within yourself." However, when the attack of the Germans became serious, the narrator says "Mose had changed. There was no longer any joy in his eyes. He no longer talked to me of God."
