Question

In the book Night, What did Elie mean when he said, "I was the accuser, God was the accused." Explain.

Answer 1

From this limited context I think what Elie is saying is that he was angry with god, for allowing the Holocaust to occur.

Answer 2

Elie claims he no longer believes in God, but he, in turn, looks to God when he is doubtful of his ability to control himself. ... At the very beginning of the book, Wiesel shows his strong devotion to God but as he personally experiences the Holocaust, Wiesel becomes cynical of his religious beliefs.

Step-by-step explanation:

What he Meant by God was the Accused Was he was basically blaming God And it not good at all to Accuse God of something because he is innocent.
