Answer:

For Eliezer his religion, his identity of being Jewish is everything.

Step-by-step explanation:

‘Night’ is a novel authored by Elie Wiesel. The central character and the narrator of this novel is Eliezer, and the story is about the Jews and how Nazi treated the Jews under the rule of Hitler.

It was the year 1944 when Nazis took over Hungary. The story of Eliezer depicts the pain and struggle of thousands of Jews back then. The initial part of the novel shows how important religion is to Eliezer, and most of the time it is his teacher Moishe The Beadle with whom Eliezer talks and discuss about religious things.
