The jewish man pretended to be a Nazi slave and said he was taking orders from an officer to clear the streets, even though he lied, it saved him from being shot, or taken away to a Labor Camp because he was scared. He had made a very smart decision. Another example of this was when all the jews were being split up into lines. The Nazis knew the good lines and the bad lines. One of the younger Nazi soliders helping the jews, would put them in the good lines.
