Who is Rabbi Solomon from Mila 18 and what is their importance? Mila_18 English & Literature Rabbi Solomon | Mila 18

The religious leader of the Jews in Warsaw, Rabbi Solomon is a peaceful man who believes that resistance to the Nazis is not the correct response for the ghetto residents. He truly believes that what befalls the Jews will be countered by God who will ultimately send their Messiah to free them from bondage, whether that occurs during his lifetime or not. He is content that Alex Brandel is maintaining a journal of events and even suggests that the volumes be hidden for posterity. Rabbi Solomon dies in the bunker under Mila 18 as an old man who is unable to survive the horrific conditions there.
