Many times in the book, the most terrible or significant things happen during night time. It is night when they were first told about the deportation of the Jews, it was night when they arrived in Auschwitz, and it was night when they ran over 50 miles to Buna. In the beginning of The Bible, the earth is dark. Then God creates light. The world in darkness is signifying a world with out God. God created light, so light is present, so is God. When it is dark, God isn't there. Partially because of this, Elie struggles to maintain faith in his God. He doubts God's presence, benevolence, and even existence because of how they are treated in the camps. God surly would have stopped that.

This is just what I learned in my English class but I believe a better answer can be found if you visit the sparknotes website:

Is the title night of the scorpion appropriate?

The Night of the Scorpion is a SUITABLE title. The poet uses this title to show the power and influence of the scorpion on the villagers(peasants), mother, father and himself during this one night. The poet uses this title to show that the scorpion had struck the villagers in a cunning and vile manner. The entire night had been a burden for the mother as a result of its attack. The scorpion, or the Evil One, had shown its influence over the villagers that night, and had displayed its skill and power. Hence, that night was its time of influence. Hence the title is appropriate. There are many suitable titles for this poem, but this one is completely appropriate.
