3520. 'And I will make them into savoury food for your father, such as he loves' means that from these it will produce things that are delightful. This is clear from the meaning of 'savoury food' as forms of pleasantness received from good, dealt with above in 3502. Here they are called delightful because the truths do not spring from genuine good but from homeborn good, 3518.
