Night by Elie Wiesel

Look at the simile on page 19 in the novel Night. “The synagogue was like a huge station: luggage and tears.”How does the synagogue resemble a station?

Those present in the synagogue are prepared for travel.... it is not at this moment a place of worship, but rather, a place of transition. The Jews are leaving their homes and their place of worship.
