A Chabad-Lubavitch rabbi prays in a synagogue adjacent to the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson’s gravesite in the Queens borough of New York on Friday (Nov. 1). The rabbi was among about 4,000 rabbis from around the world who attended the International Conference of Chabad-Lubavitch Emissaries, an annual event aimed at reviving Jewish awareness and practice around the world. On his head and arms he wears tefillin, a box that contains Biblical verses. Photo courtesy Meir Alfasi/Chabad.org
