Local Call—The Power of Prayer at the Ohel

Why do we pray facing the Land of Israel? What is the advantage of praying in a holy place? Are there places other than Israel that also afford us this advantage? Where on earth is heaven considered a "local call"?

Rabbi Taub studies an excerpt from a talk by the Rebbe about the unique advantage of prayer at the resting place of the righteous.

This text-based class took place at Beth Rivkah Seminary in Crown Heights.
