There Will Be Your Graves

Rav Dov Berish used to say that at Har Sinai, when Hashem held the mountain over our heads and forced us to accept the Torah, He warned us that if we did not accept it, "there will be your graves." The Rav pointed out that it does not say "here will be your graves" but "there," referring to that time. It is a warning that at any time or place, if one, Heaven forbid, forsakes the Torah, "there will be your graves," because there is no life without Torah.
