Read this passage.

In this excerpt, Wiesel describes how his fellow inmates at Auschwitz behaved in the barracks.

excerpt from Night by Elie Wiesel

Some of the men spoke of God: His mysterious ways, the sins of the Jewish people, and the redemption to come. As for me, I had ceased to pray. I concurred with Job! I was not denying His existence, but I doubted His absolute justice.

B. His religion is more important to him now than ever before.

C. He longs to believe in God as he once did.
