What do the following passages show regarding elie’s transformation during his time at the concentration camps?

passage 1

he had watched me one day as i prayed at dusk.

"why do you cry when you pray? " he asked, as though he knew me well.

"i don’t know," i answered, troubled.

i had never asked myself that question. i cried because something inside me felt the need to cry. that was all i knew.

"why do you pray? " he asked after a moment.

why did i pray? strange question. why did i live? why did i breathe?

"i don't know," i told him, even more troubled and ill at ease. "i don't know."

from that day on, i saw him often. he explained to me, with great emphasis, that every question possessed a power that was lost in the answer…

man comes closer to god through the questions he asks him, he liked to say. therein lies true dialogue. man asks and god replies. but we don't understand his replies. we cannot understand them. because they dwell in the depths of our souls and remain there until we die. the real answers, eliezer, you will find only within yourself.

passage 2

what are you, my god? i thought angrily. how do you compare to this stricken mass gathered to affirm to you their faith, their anger, their defiance? what does your grandeur mean, master of the universe, in the face of all this cowardice, this decay, and this misery? why do you go on troubling these poor people's wounded minds, their ailing bodies? some ten thousand men had come to participate in a solemn service, including the blockälteste, the kapos, all bureaucrats in the service of death.

"blessed be the almighty…"

the voice of the officiating inmate had just become audible.

at first i thought it was the wind.

"blessed be god's n a m e … "

thousands of lips repeated the benediction, bent over like trees in a storm.

blessed be god's name?

why, but why would i bless him? every fiber in me rebelled. because he caused thousands of children to burn in his mass graves? because he kept six crematoria working day and night, including sabbath and the holy days? because in his great might, he had created auschwitz, birkenau, buna, and so many other factories of death? how could i say to him: blessed be thou, almighty, master of the universe, who chose us among all nations to be tortured day and night, to watch as our fathers, our mothers, our brothers end up in the furnaces? praised be thy holy name, for having chosen us to be slaughtered on thine altar?
