DOVE - D>@ - The first menton of this bird occurs in kjv@Genesis:8. The dove’s rapidity of flight is alluded to in kjv@Psalms:55:6) the beauty of its plumage in kjv@Psalms:68:13) its dwelling int he rocks and valleys in kjv@Jeremiah:48:28) and kjv@Ezekiel:7:16 Its mournful voice in kjv@Isaiah:38:14 kjv@Isaiah:59:11; kjv@Nahum:2:7) its harmlessness in kjv@Matthew:10:16) its simplicity in kjv@Hosea:7:11) and its amativeness in (Solomon kjv@1:15; 2:14) Doves are kept in a domesticated state in many parts of the East. In Persia pigeon-houses are erected at a distance from the dwellings, for the purpose of collecting the dung as manure. There is probably an allusion to such a custom in kjv@Isaiah:60:8)

DOVES DUNG - D>@ - Various explanations have been given of the passage in ( kjv@2Kings:6:25) Bochart has labored to show that it denotes a species of cicer , "chick-pea," which he says the Arabs call usnan , and sometimes improperly "dove’s" or "sparrow’s dung." Great quantities of these are sold in Cairo to the pilgrims going to Mecca. Later authorities incline to think it the bulbous root of the Star of Bethlehem (ornithogalum , i.e. bird-milk), a common root in Palestine, and sometimes eaten.
ED. It can scarcely be believed that even in the worst horrors of a siege a substance so vile as is implied by the literal rendering should have been used for food.

easton:

Dove @ In their wild state doves generally build their nests in the clefts of rocks, but when domesticated "dove-cots" are prepared for them (Cant. kjv@2:14; Jeremiah:48:28; kjv@Isaiah:60:8). The dove was placed on the standards of the Assyrians and Babylonians in honour, it is supposed, of Semiramis kjv@Jeremiah:25:38; Vulg., "fierceness of the dove;" comp. kjv@Jeremiah:46:16 kjv@Jeremiah:50:16). Doves and turtle-doves were the only birds that could be offered in sacrifice, as they were clean according to the Mosaic law kjv@Genesis:15:9; kjv@Leviticus:5:7 kjv@Leviticus:12:6; kjv@Luke:2:24). The dove was the harbinger of peace to Noah kjv@Genesis:8:8-10). It is often mentioned as the emblem of purity kjv@Psalms:68:13). It is a symbol of the Holy Spirit kjv@Genesis:1:2; kjv@Matthew:3:16; kjv@Mark:1:10; kjv@Luke:3:22; kjv@John:1:32); also of tender and devoted affection (Cant. kjv@1:15; 2:14). David in his distress wished that he had the wings of a dove, that he might fly away and be at rest kjv@Psalms:55:6-8). There is a species of dove found at Damascus "whose feathers, all except the wings, are literally as yellow as gold" (68:13).

Dove's dung @ ( kjv@2Kings:6:25) has been generally understood literally. There are instances in history of the dung of pigeons being actually used as food during a famine. Compare also the language of Rabshakeh to the Jews ( kjv@2Kings:18:27; kjv@Isaiah:36:12). This name, however, is applied by the Arabs to different vegetable substances, and there is room for the opinion of those who think that some such substance is here referred to, as, e.g., the seeds of a kind of millet, or a very inferior kind of pulse, or the root of the ornithogalum, i.e., bird-milk, the star-of
- Bethlehem.
