"G-d held the mountain over them like a jar and said: 'If you accept the Torah, fine; if not, here shall be your grave.'" But hadn't the people already proclaimed that they want the Torah?
A tree without firm roots can be uprooted in the winds and its fruit scattered. Like a tree, man too needs strong roots, which in effect lead to bearing good fruit.
