Ididn’t understand, though i wanted to. ask any survivor and you will hear the same thing: above all, we tried to understand. why all these deaths? what was the point of this death factory? how to account for the demented mind that devised this black hole of history called birkenau? perhaps there was nothing to understand. based on the excerpt, the author would most likely agree that?

the rationale for the Holocaust will always be incomprehensible.

At the beginning of the excerpt, the author expresses that he is terribly confused by the rationale of Birkenau (a Nazi concentration camp during World War II). Moreover, he tells us that most survivors are equally confused. However, he concludes by saying "perhaps there was nothing to understand." This implies that the author believes that the rationale for the Holocaust will probably always be incomprehensible.

the difference between an explicit and implicit meaning is that the explicit meaning of a poem is that the detail is exactly defined. nothing is left to interpretation. an implicit meaning is an implied meaning. kabir's poetry is both explicit and implicit in that it can be interpreted on different levels. the explicit meaning leaves nothing to interpretation while the implicit meaning leaves lots open to interpretation. an example of this is found in the poem "rumi and the spiritual lover".
