He is a loner that works as a handy man in the Synagogue. Elie Wiesel considers him to be his 'tutor'.
Moshe the Beadle is likely in his 30s at the end of 1941. He is a respected member of the Jewish community in Sighet and serves as a mentor to Eliezer in the book "Night" by Elie Wiesel.
In the book Night, Moshe the Beadle had successfully survived a massacre and returned to Sighet to warn the other Jews there, but they didn't listen to him.
The townspeople didn't listen to Moshe the Beadle in "Night" because they found his tales of the atrocities in the concentration camps too incredible to believe. They were in denial and couldn't fathom the horror that was about to befall them. It was only later, when they experienced it for themselves, that they understood the truth of Moshe's warnings.
"They called him Moshe the Beadle, as though he had never had a suranme in his life."
he had gotten captured by the Nazis and escaped and when he went back to warn his community about the Nazis plan's the thought he was crazy
Moche the Beadle was a religious man who worked at the Hasidic synagogue in Sighet. He was known for his profound spirituality and his role as a mentor to the narrator in Elie Wiesel's book "Night." Moche's story of escaping death at the hands of the Nazis served as a warning that was not heeded by the Jewish community.
Moishe the Beadle was timid and quiet. Physically he looked skinny and slightly awkward. He looked like what most would call a "nerd".
Actually, he did learn from Moshe, the Beadle but it wasn't long after, that the Germans invaded and forced them into ghettos and later into concentration camps. I know that in the beginning Elie looked up to Moshe the Beadle, but I am not sure who exactly was the religious teacher.
Moshe the Beadle's experience of being deported and witnessing the horrors of the concentration camps during the Holocaust changes him profoundly. It transforms him into a silent, haunted figure. He becomes detached and distant, carrying the burden of the atrocities he has seen. The experience deepens his understanding of human nature and suffering, making him more introspective and introspective.
Moshe the Beadle had just escaped and came home to warn everyone to get out, to take their possesions and move to Palestine. Everyone thought he was crazy or they just were to lazy or they just didn't believe him.
Moishe the Beadle is an allegorical reference to the Prophet Jeremiah. Much of Dr. Wiesel's writings is rooted in Jewish religious traditions, reflecting the faith of his ancestors and the background in which he was raised. The character of Moishe is likely an amalgam of individuals with whom Dr. Wiesel had contact in his youth but the reference is clear to Jeremiah whom warned ancient Jewish society of the impending destruction of the Temple and the consequent diaspora resulting from the Babylonian wars.
Moishe the Beadle was deported along with other foreign Jews to a concentration camp but managed to escape. When he returned to warn the Jews of the atrocities he witnessed, he was not taken seriously. Eventually, he disappeared and was never seen again.
