• Topic #1: Eliezer's Struggle to Keep his Faith in God

Eliezer expresses sympathy for Job, the biblical figure who experienced horrendous loss and illness as Satan and God engaged in a debate over Job’s faithfulness. After watching the lynching and slow death of a young boy, Eliezer tells himself that God is hanging from the gallows as well. In his Nobel lecture, Wiesel describes the Holocaust as “a universe where God, betrayed by His creatures, covered His face in order not to see.”

• Topic #4: Nazi Deception and the Demoralization and Dehumanization of Eliezer and his Fellow Prisoners

From deportation from Sighet to murder at Birkenau, deception was often used to confuse and demoralize the prisoners. Eliezer observes the now-infamous inscription above the entrance to Auschwitz, equating work with liberty. How does that inscription come to embody the deceit and bitter irony of the Nazi camps? What was the inscription? What was “work” of the prisoners? How does deception dehumanize? (Think about what all the lies do to the human spirit)
