The irony is from that fact that most likely Elie's mother and sister were sent to the gas chambers. While it is unknown if his mother and sister died then or later, Elie comments at that part in the book that he was "leaving my mother and sister forever" (page 29). The irony of his fathers comment could be from the fact that he believes they are headed for death, and that Elie's mother and sister lived, when the opposite seems true. In a desire to see his son spared Elie's father unknowingly wished for his son to be killed.

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.
