Akiba instead of letting his faith go he decides to keep believing and he believes in God and with faith in God he will survive in the concentration camps. I lovee you elie said to his wife and he left to the concentration camps.
At the beginning of the novel Elie’s faith is all strong with God, but when gets put into the concentration camp Elie starts to lose his faith. Elie’s life changes when he got into the concentration camp. He was seeing many horrible and deadly events he shouldn’t see at his age.

Some Jews in the camp still had their faith, but for Elie his faith dropped so much that he never continued to pray. Elie was thinking to himself “his mysterious ways, the sins of the Jewish people, and the redemption to come. As for me, I had to cease to pray. I concurred with job.

As for Akiba Drummer he still had his faith with god. Akiba
