Night Quotes 1 :))

"The one day they expelled all the foreign Jews from Sighet. And Moche the Beadle was a forigner" (Wiesel 16). This quote is foreshadowing the events that will happen later; the Jews will leave Sighet. First they expelled all foreign Jews from Sighet. Then the Jews of Sighet are sent to a big ghetto and a little ghetto. Only to wait to be deported. The Jews who weren't deported the second time were moved to the little ghetto and waited until they were deported.

"In front of us flames. In the air that smell of burning flesh" (Wiesel 37). "In front of us flames" makes me feel kind of edgy/eeiry because Madame Shachter was yelling the whole time about flames and fire and how she could see it. But not only did she say that she saw it a head of time, it was like she could see into the future or was predicting it! "smell of burning flesh" when I read that part it made me think. The final solution was to kill them all easily, by gassing them then burning them in a human oven (Cremater... thing) The edgy/eeiry  feeling comes from whats happening twards the end. It already is telling you that all the jews (or most) are going to end up in a camp. However it doesn't tell you what they're going to see there or what'll happen. Like for the foreigner Jews in Sieght they had to dig their own graves, but when the Jews who were in the little ghetto of Sieght they see fire, and smell burning flesh.
