Faith Is Important

Why read Elie Wiesel’s Night and compare it with the book of Job? Well after reading them I discovered that there is similar character in both of them. This character in Job is Satan and in Night it is the Nazis. We learn that Satan is trying to defy Job to not believe in God,. The bible shows us, “And Satan answered the LORD, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life.”(Job 2, 4) Here Satan tells God that Job will not believe in him and so Satan begins to take away things from Job, but he doesn’t “sinned not, nor charged God foolishly”(Job 1, 22) In The other book, Night, the enemy are the Nazis, who try to take away the dignity to all the Jews, but they cant. “Blessed be the name of the eternal!”( Pg 64) Any ways, as this quote show us, the Jews were always havin faith on God and praing to him that they be protected. Both Books, Night and Job are examples of great faith.

Liborio two weeks ago you were doing more in depth writing. I need you to continue to do what you're doing oly more extensively. You could've gone further with this comparison for example.
