Akiba Drumer said: "God is testing us". How does he go onto explain what he means, and how does Drumer's eventual fate reflect the state of his faith?

Would love if someone could answer this properly.

Holding onto faith was a different struggle for each of them; Eliezer believed that God had deserted them, others simply praised God and kept the faith, Akiba lost his faith, and then reassessed his belief and held on tight to the fact that he believed God was merely testing them. Elizer feels that religious hope is only used for comfort: if there is a God, he has forsaken his own people. Akiba Drumer was a victim of the selection. He was killed and the people who promissed to Kaddish for him but they forgot. To Elie, God was dead.
