A Dream of Eretz Yisroel

Once, when Rav Nosson was serving as Rav of Tete Vegsing, he was called to Belgrade on some matter. There was a mountain there so high that it was rumored one could see Eretz Yisroel from its summit. Rav Nosson greatly desired to see the Holy Land, and he climbed for hours to reach the peak.

After a long, arduous journey he reached the top, only to find that the rumors were untrue. He could not see Eretz Yisroel at all. At most he could gaze in the general direction that would eventually lead to the Land. In his exhaustion and disappointment, Rav Nosson fell asleep.

In a dream he was shown the entire stretch of Eretz Yisroel, from border to border. He was also shown every holy place, the Mekomos Hakedoshim. When he awoke he was full of joy, content that he had merited to see the Holy Land after all.
