"Rabbi Eliahu is the rabbi of a small Polish community, beloved and kind. He retains his holiness, despite his time in the concentration camps. He is portrayed as a man to be pitied because his son deserts him. Why? Because he's old, and he's getting to be a burden. On realizing that the rabbi's son abandoned his father, Eliezer prays desperately to God that he himself will not give in to the temptation to treat his own father in the same way."

Elie's attitude and feelings towards his father begin to resemble that of Rabbi Eliahu as Elie witnesses the deterioration of their relationship due to the harsh conditions in the concentration camp. Both Elie and Rabbi Eliahu struggle with feelings of abandonment and despair as they face the brutality of the Holocaust, which leads Elie to question his faith and connection to his father just as Rabbi Eliahu searches for his lost son amidst the chaos.
