"The gallows threw its shadow over him" (61).
This is another example of the theme of eminent death. The inspiration to resist the Nazis is tamped down by the threat of hanging for the prisoners. The looming doom is shown here.

"At that moment in time, all that mattered to me was my daily bowl of soup, my crust of stale bread. The bread, the soup— those were my entire life. I was nothing but a body. Perhaps even less: a famished stomach. The stomach alone was measuring time" (52).

Soup represents Elie's basic needs for survival

Theme: Death

"And so he remained for more than half an hour, lingering between life and death, writhing before our eyes. And we were forced to look at him at close range. He was still alive when I passed him. His tongue was still red his eyes not yet extinguished" (Wiesel 65 blue book).

We also believe this quote foreshadows the hangings/death a little bit:

"Don't kill yourself. There's no hurry. But watch out. Don't let an SS catch you" (Wiesel 50 blue book).

The first quote shows that the Jews have an eminent death of either the furnace or hanging. They can't escape their death and it is going to happen eventually. They were sent there to be killed. Death is re occurring and inevitable for the Jews.

“I had watched it all happening without moving. I kept silent. In fact, I thought of stealing away in order not to suffer the blows. What’s more, if I felt anger at that moment, it was not directed at the Kapo but at my father. Why couldn’t he have avoided Idek’s wrath? That was what life in a concentration camp had made of me…” Page 54
This shows how Elie is chnaging to avoid death.

“ Bite your lips, little brother … Don’t cry. Keep your anger, your hate, for another day, for later. The day will come but not now … Wait. Clench your teeth and wait … “ (Wiesle 53).

Motif: Soup
" At that moment in time, all that mattered to me was my daily bowl of soup, my crust of stale bread"(Wiesel 52)
Wiesel uses soup throughout the chapter many times. The soup represents the hunger of the prisoners. This quote also shows how deprived the prisoners have become where the only important thing to them is their daily ration

“ Every bomb that hit filled us with joy, gave us renewed confidence” ( Wiesel 60)
The bomb can be seen as a symbol for hope because everytime one hit it meant that people knew what was going on and were trying to help them.

Motif: soup
"'Where He is? This is where—hanging here from this gallows…' That night, the soup tasted of corpses" (Wiesel 65).
Here, the soup represents Elie's fear of being killed, as watching a young boy die made it seem more possible he could die. The soup could also represent Elie's feelings of empathy and sorrow after seeing the boy being killed.

# data[].attributes.body
"Then the entire camp, block after block, filed past the hanged boy and stared at his extinguished eyes, the tongue hanging from his gaping mouth. The Kapos forced everyone to look him squarely in the face...I remember that on that evening, the soup tasted better than ever… " (63)
Soup reflects Elie's satisfaction with survival

“Two cauldrons of soup! Hundreds of eyes were looking at them, shining with desire. Two lambs with hundreds of wolves lying in wait for them. Two lambs without a shepherd, free for the taking. But who would dare? (Wiesel 59).
- motif of hunger, which represents the thing Elie is reduced to, the only thing he is worried about/is in the eyes of the oppressor

“I anxiously thought of my father, who was at work. But I was glad nevertheless. To watch that factory go up in flames ─what revenge” (Weisel 60).

I chose this quote because the interpretation of fire in this quote is very different from the interpretation of fire in other parts of the book. Usually, fire has been a motif for punishment of oppression of the Jews. However, in this quote, when the Nazi factory explodes in flames, the Jews are filled with joy and happiness. Hence, in this quote, the fire is a symbol for optimism and revenge against the Nazis.

Motif: Eyes
" From time to time, a smile would linger in his gray-blue eyes" (Wiesel 47 blue book).

"The women silently greeted the musicians with their eyes" (Wiesel 50 blue book).

Eyes are something that pop-up a lot in this chapter but we picked these quotes because we believe the eyes represent how the Jews communicate now. You can't smile with your eyes, you use you mouth for that, but in the first quote he uses his eyes. They communicate through eyes now because they are too afraid of speaking.
