God's Omnipresence

Elie Wiesel experienced events and persecution beyond my fathomability, and questions the presence of God. While he has a more experienced approach to the question of why the Jewish persecution happened in God's presence (we know that God is omnipresent due to Proverbs 15:3, "The eyes of the LORD are in every place, Watching the evil and the good," which is a shared book of Judaism and Christianity), Wiesel states that God was absent, which is not the case. God did not necessarily cause the persecution to happen, but He did not intervene prior to allied invasion. I am unable to fully understand God, but it is perhaps possible that He manipulated evil to do His will, such as igniting the faith of a Christian because of the persecution of Jews for their faith. Perhaps God used the Holocaust to deliver Wiesel from death by him not being captured, such as by bombing, or car wreck before his preconceived time. Wiesel states that God was absent during his persecution, but this simply is not the case. God was, is, and always will be present.

P.S. I commented on Hannah's.
