Dove -Fowl

A dove was used to see if the waters were subsided from off the face of the ground. The dove was declared a pure bird by the Law of Moses. The dove was used for a sin-offering. The priests were permitted to sale doves in the courts of the temple. The image of the dove was used for the Holy Spirit descending on Jesus at his baptism.
