1. In our class lesson, we discuss an Oprah interview with Elie Wiesel,
Oprah: Did you ever hate your oppressors?
Elie: I had anger but never hate. Before the war, I was too busy studying [the Bible and the Cabala] to hate. After the war, I thought, "What's the use?" To hate would be to reduce myself.
What does Elie mean when he said, "To hate would be reduce myself".
2. Oprah: Do you think that God lives in the people—and the people stand by and watch the children suffer?
Elie: The opposite of love is not hate, but indifference.
Oprah: Because indifference allows the world to stand by and watch?
Elie: Indifference creates evil.
Oprah: Doesn't hatred create evil?
What was the public reaction to Moshe's story?
What was the setting and the year for the first section of the book? What was the world condition at the time?
Describe, in order, the events that happened from the last day of Passover until Pentecost.
