Analysis
God had gone through it before, he wasn’t looking after his children, they were alone and didn’t matter
The unthinkable had happened, as if the world was actually coming to an end

Analysis
Fire is consuming his life, it’s going to destroy it and kill him. Make everything that hurts go away
Let out the rage and anger, to tear apart like fire does
His father’s road had ended, this was how he moved on
To end the camp, get rid of it and leave behind only memories and ashes of what had happened there

Purpose for Fire
To show not only death, but total consumption of an entire race, to exterminate and get rid of completely, leave behind ashes of formal life
Was also what actually happened
Fire was showing his own fear as well as others
Only ashes remain

Purpose for writing Night
To show just how horrible the holocaust really was
To remind us of what happened
To make sure it never happens again
To share his story
