Three times does Noah send the dove. The dove found no rest in Genesis 8:9.
The second time the dove comes back with an olive leaf. This olive leaf is a representation of peace.
The Bible elsewhere talks about the dove resting on Christ who is our peace before God in Matthew 3. Notice the dove doesnt land on Christ and someone else or something else. The dove lands on Christ alone our Rock. The wise man builds his house upon the rock.
