Chasidut for Chullin 182:23
כמה רחבו של סולם שמונת אלפים פרסאות דכתיב (בראשית כח, יב) והנה מלאכי אלהים עולים ויורדים בו עולים שנים ויורדים שנים וכי פגעו בהדי הדדי הוו להו ארבעה וכתיב ביה במלאך (דניאל י, ו) וגויתו כתרשיש וגמירי דתרשיש תרי אלפי פרסי הוו

Keter Shem Tov
From the BeSh"T. "There are three graces: the grace of a place on (in the eyes of) its inhabitants"... (Sotah 47a). This is explained in Chullin 91b, that [when Jacob slept] God "folded up all of the Land of Israel under him"; "the land which you lie upon, I will give it to you" (Genesis 28:13). Meaning, that you will not need to travel from place to place in order to clarify the land's sparks of holiness, for you will be able to clarify them in your place. "And Noah found grace..." (Genesis 6:8)
