The Dove and the Jewish People
Bin: Throughout Talmudic literature, the Jewish people are compared to the dove. Once a dove meets her mate, she never leaves him for another, and a dove, even when her offspring are taken, will never abandon her nest. In a similar fashion, the Children of Israel are faithful to God.
The Sages of the Midrash comment that the dove that Noach (Noah) sent foreshadows the journey of the Jewish people throughout history.
Just as the dove found no rest for the sole of its foot, so the Jews will find no solace in exile. Just as the dove returned to the ark seeking shelter, so the Jews will return from exile to the Land of Israel.
Like Noach’s dove, the people have remained faithful to Hashem (God), and now, after thousands of years of absence, have returned to His land. more …
“But the dove could not find a resting place for its foot, and returned to him to the ark, for there was water over all the earth. So putting out his hand, he took it into the ark with him” Genesis 8:9 (The Israel Bible™)
Opinion: Secularism runs rampant in the Holy Land. It is a remnant of religious Jews who have remained faithful.
And it is a remnant (Zechariah 13:7-9) that will turn to Messiah Jesus at the end of Daniel’s 70th week and be saved.
“And I will pour on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of grace and supplication; then they will look on Me whom they pierced. Yes, they will mourn for Him as one mourns for his only son, and grieve for Him as one grieves for a firstborn.”
