Hayyei Sarah - Another Test?

Last week, Parashat Vayera we talked about the first and last test- of Avraham. Some view this parasha as a continuing test – purchasing land for his wife’s burial.  We also see the transition to Yitzhak, who continues and completes the mourning process for Sarah, as well. Nevertheless, Avraham is an active player in Chayei Sarah. This Parasha exemplifies the idea that sometimes, the challenge or test is to follow God’s path even without clear instructions.
