Number 3

Option 3

In the Novel The Night, the Concentration Camps that Elie is sent too, the camps always seem less threatening in the daytime. The night is the the Nazi's greatest ally in the race to get rid of the Jews before the Russians save them. During the Night, the Jews are scared out of their minds as the flame of the crematoria becomes visible, as the scent of blood has an unknown orgin, as the bodies on the ground appear and disappear. Without the night, the jews would be stronger, and have more hope for the end. This is what the Nazi's dont want, they want to kill them on the inside, then the outside. Elie talks to his father about this regularly when they are new to the camps, but it slowly fades away as these fears are more regular, and more accepted. In the day time, the jews can still see that there is a world out there, and that the world hasent given up on them yet. But during the night, all humanity of the world just disappears, and the world as they know it, transforms into hell on earth. The Jews including Elie and Chlomo accept this, and embrace it. The strong ones believe that it will be over, and they can get back to life, but the weak fall over, to their death.
