Answer:

The storm is being personified in lines 16-17 of The Tempest.

Explanation:

Personification means giving human traits to an inanimate object. Personification is a literary device used by many authors to add depth and interest to their writing.

In lines 16-17 of The Tempest: "You are a councilor.

If you can command these elements to silence and work the peace of the present,

we will not hand a rope more"

The elements in question refer to the storm, which was given a human trait with the sentence 'if you can command these elements to silence...'.

You can command or silence a person, but you can't do that to a storm.

So, the statement personified the storm (elements) with the human trait of being commanded and silence.

Moishe the Beadle is the first character we meet in Night. In a way, he is a character who determines and marks Eliezer's life - first, by teaching him the mystic Kabbalah (which his father disapproves of); second, by warning the local Jews of the extermination that awaits them by the Nazi regime. Therefore, Moishe is an epitome of Wiesel's main idea: that people should never ignore oppression, or try to stay neutral towards it. Moishe speaks, but people hardly believe him, if at all. He is a kind of a prophet, who foresees the future (based on his own experience), but it is all in vain, because people are prone to turn a blind eye until it gets too late.
