3536. 'And his mother made savoury food such as his father loved' means things that are delightful, yet not desirable. This is clear from the representation of Rebekah, to whom 'mother' refers here, as the Divine Rational as regards truth, and from the meaning of 'savoury food' as the forms of pleasantness that belong to truth, dealt with above in 3502. The reason why here they are delightful but not desirable is that they were not the product of 'Esau's venison', that is, of truth acquired from genuine good, 3501, but the product of 'the kids of the she-goats of the flock', that is, of truth that is born from homeborn good, 3518, 3519. What is implied in all this becomes clear from what has been stated above in 3502, 3512, 3518, 3519.
