"Peace, it is a providence and no great change, we are what we always were, but naked now, aye naked! And the wind, Gods icy wind, will blow"
I personally think this quote is saying that peace is a protective care of God and should not have a change. Peace is a gift from God that he has gave people to lead in their town and not break it away. They are who god made them to be, being peaceful is a thing God gave his people so they can follow and respect it. Now they are naked, they have changed in a negative way, the people God made them as is still there they just have to open their eyes and realize who they have become. When they say they are naked now means they changed to a person God did not set them as. With all the lies they are telling and all the accusations made upon each other, knowing death can be a solution to everything at the end. The wind symbolizes the power of God, now after all the things they are doing towards each other God will use his icy power to pay them back for what they have done. God always knows how to teach a lesson to his people, now they will pay back for eve thing they have done."Peace, it is a providence and no great change, we are what we always were, but naked now, aye naked! And the wind, Gods icy wind, will blow"

    Night Elie Weisel

    • 648 Words
    • 3 Pages

    this passage resembles two significant pieces of literature: Psalm 150, from the Bible, and French author Emile Zola’s 1898 essay “J’accuse.” Psalm 150, the final prayer in the book of Psalms, is an ecstatic celebration of God. Each line begins, “Hallelujah,” or “Praise God.” Here, Wiesel constructs an inverse version of that psalm, beginning each line with a negation—“Never”—that replaces the affirmative “Hallelujah” of the original. Whereas Psalm 150 praises God, this passage questions him. As such, both the form and content of this passage reflect the inversion of Eliezer’s faith and the morality of the world around him. Everything he once believed has been turned upside down,…

    One must be able to admit and accept their own flaws and be loving towards their enemies whom also contain imperfections. Humans need to give up the concept that we have enemies in front of us, and learn to get past the differences. This claim is supported by “Therefore the Master concerns himself with the depths and not the surface, with the fruit and not the flower” (Stanza 38). Compassion is about looking internally and putting others before ourselves. We as humans need to attain compassion for others and see ones beauty for what’s on the inside rather than outside. Rather than fighting with others, we need to work on ourselves for personal growth and reconcile with people. We need not concern ourselves with the enemy or perceive that individual as such, for they are people just like us. The importance of compassion also plays a role in war, “His enemies are not demons, but human beings like himself. He doesn’t wish them personal harm. Nor does he rejoice in victory. How could he rejoice in victory and delight in the slaughter of men?” (Stanza 31). This quote is stating that we are all humans despite our differences. War is only an option in the direst necessity, and when entering war we must have compassion for the other side. We must not rejoice in victory because killing is not good in any…

    The quotations say a few things, but the one I interpreted is that men run at each other during the war. They really are running towards their death. What death is saying is that by being in the war the men are running him or her. That by running towards other men with guns and bombs, they are running towards their death. Whether they evade it or not. When a man is fighting man, death stands nearby waiting and watching. The significance of the quote is that during the holocaust, men were running at "men", death, all over the place. Everywhere there was people dying and asking, begging, to die. There was so much death that it was sometimes hard to evade its grasp. It says in the book that sometimes Death was in more than one place picking and…

    And because of the pain the people were going through, they would “cry unto the LORD.” God then would raise a judge to deliver them out of the oppression, of the pain. Pain became a defense mechanism for anyone to increase avoidance of a particular harm and also to call for help. He doesn’t want us to do evil in His sight, to live that which is right in our own eyes. God wants us to cry unto Him our anger, bitterness, sourness, wrath, malice, hatred, envy, jealousy, selfishness, resentment so that He would deliver you out of those and turn those to self-control, mercy, grace and…

    The Book Of Judges

    • 604 Words
    • 3 Pages

    I struggle with this text on numerous accounts. Firstly, I do not know how I would utilize this book in a pastoral setting other than presenting it as a message that states, “do what God says, or else!” The fear of the Lord is a good thing, but this book seems to inspire or draw out nothing but fear from people. It is all senseless violence and needless anguish because the people of Israel continue time and again to stray from God. I do not believe that most congregations would like to hear a sermon series based on this book, but I also know that it is not good to completely exclude it because it, too, is the inspired Word of God and that it was included in the canon for a reason. There is also a nagging thought in my brain that tries to connect the dots between the time of the judges and today’s era. Surely, we as a people, or even just we as Christians, are royally screwing up just as much as the Israelites were in that time. This makes me wonder how much God may be weeping because of the evil that his children do. We are covered by His grace – I have not forgotten this. I just cannot help but think that we can and should be doing better. I am not talking about works righteousness, but I am merely saying that we, myself included, can find ways to appropriately respond to His love and grace with gratitude and further advance His…
