Who offered Eliezer’s family safe refuge? Why do you suppose Elie’s father did not accept the offer? Do you think it was a mistake?

Martha is an old, non-Jewish servant. She comes to visit and tries to get the family to escape and hide in her village. Eliezer's father refuses to go and tells Eliezer he can go if he wants to. Eliezer refuses to leave his family, and they all remain in the ghetto. This was a big mistake. Elie's father could have saved his family.
