There is a distinction of every person’s point of view; such as the conflicting sworn statements of two eyewitnesses to a crime. It’s not that there is honesty versus dishonesty, but sometimes the difference in the point of view. POV1:
Elie Wiesel has said there was an absence of God in a place like this…
Quotes from Elie Wiesel’s Point of View:
"Never shall I forget those moments which murdered my God and my soul and turned my dreams to dust. Never shall I forget these things, even if I am condemned to live as long as God Himself. Never."
- Elie Wiesel, Night, Ch. 3
"Where is He? Here He is--He is hanging here on this gallows."
- Elie Wiesel, Night, Ch. 4
Background Information: This could be because the presence of Christ was more abstract for Jews. The Jews did not believe in Jesus Christ who God sent as the Messiah to forgive them of their sins. The belief in Jesus Christ is what it means to be a Christian or a Jew for Jesus.
Example of Jew for Jesus - Paul (also known as Saul) who wrote more than ½ the New Testament in the Bible, he was a Jew who condemned Christians. God spoke to him one day asking, “Paul why do you persecute me so?” meaning his people too. This is when Paul converted to Christianity making him a Jew for Jesus.

POV2:
Another victim of the concentration camp horrors is Corrie ten Boom, the Christian author of the bestselling autobiography The Hiding Place.
Quotes from Corrie ten Boom’s Point of View:
""Happiness isn't' something that depends on our surroundings, Corrie. It's something we make inside ourselves."" — Corrie Ten Boom (The Hiding Place)
""Whenever we cannot love in the old, human way, Corrie, God can give us the perfect way.""
— Corrie Ten Boom (The Hiding Place)
"Dear Jesus...how foolish of me to have called for human help when You are here."
— Corrie Ten Boom (The Hiding Place)

"No pit is so deep that God's love is not deeper still."
— Corrie Ten Boom (The Hiding Place)
How do you think Elie reacts to his situation and to those about him, and what does this tell us about his personality? What would his father, Moshe the beadle, etc say about him?

Read the excerpt from "a defence of poetry.” poetry thus makes immortal all that is best and most beautiful in the world; it arrests the vanishing apparitions which haunt the interlunations of life, and veiling them, or in language or in form, sends them forth among mankind, bearing sweet news of kindred joy to those with whom their sisters abide—abide, because there is no portal of expression from the caverns of the spirit which they inhabit into the universe of things. poetry redeems from decay the visitations of the divinity in man. which details from the excerpt provide more information about shelley’s idea that poetry "makes immortal all that is best and most beautiful in the world”? check all that apply. arrests the vanishing apparitions which haunt the interlunations of life sends them forth among mankind, bearing sweet news to those with whom their sisters abide no portal of expression from the caverns of the spirit redeems from decay the visitations of the divinity in man
