Are hazelnuts and blackberries inherently appetizing?

[patriarch]

"Are hazelnuts and blackberries inherently appetizing, while truth
and peace are not?"

Zech 8:19.

[ZiSunka]

I would rather feast on peace and truth than blackberries and hazelnuts, and I love blackberries and hazelnuts!

But until you have tasted truth and peace, you can't know how good they are. You have to be at the source, getting them fresh and sweet, to know what priceless morsels they are! Like picking the berries fresh off the bush, the peace and truth of God surpasses any other peace or truth in the world.

Once you taste God, you will crave more and more. Taste and see the Lord is good! Oh the joys of those who trust in Him! Psalm 34:8
