Answer: Elie gradually loses faith due to all the hardships he suffers in the concentration camps.

Explanation:

Night (1960) describes the author's experience in the Nazi concentration camps.

The narrator gradually loses faith in God, convinced that God has abandoned him. For instance, when he sees a line of people in front of the furnace, he wonders how God allowed this to happen. He starts to think of God as his enemy. Moreover, when Pipel is hanged, Elie cannot understand where God is. What he learned about God as a child almost makes no sense in these circumstances.
