Question

In night, Moishe the Beadle is a deeply devout student of Jewish mysticism, but after seeing what the Nazis have done “He no longer mentioned god or the Kabbalah he spoke only of what he had seen”.
Which theme in this memoir does moishes new attitude help convey?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

First of all a Beadle is a minor official in a synagogue hyrarchary. He may also be a church official in Christian Churches.

Second, you really have to know what Kabbalah is. Kabbalah is the mystic part of Jewish theology. It is not in the Bible as we understand what is supposed to be in the Bible. Anyone who studies Kabbalah is considered very devout. Few Women read Kabbalah, but like everything else, there are exceptions.

Third, not offered as a choice but I think you should know it anyway, the guards would have no idea what Moishe was saying or the incantations he repeated. But the Officers were likely educated enough that they knew what was happening.  

Moishe was clever enough that he knew he was making a spectacle of himself. He knew that he had better stop drawing attention attention to himself.

So he, like all the other Jews, only spoke of things that was around him. I could have started just by giving you the answer, but this question is far to important just to do that.

How dare the person giving the question offer you C. It is an outrage. We are talking about survival, not learning during peaceful times. Not C

Moishe might have begun thinking about A. He changed. I don't think A is the answer.

B is true, but not from this passage.

So D is the only answer (poor as it is).

Answer 2

Which theme in this memoir does Moishe's new attitude help convey? Religious faith is important as a tool for survival in times of suffering. The Nazis attacked their enemies, such as the Jews, where they were most vulnerable.
