和平鸽hépínggē象征和平的鸽子。西方传说古代洪水后,坐在船里的挪亚(Noah)放出鸽子,鸽子衔着橄榄(齐墩果)树枝回来,证实洪水已经退去(见于《旧约·创世记》八章)。后世就用鸽子和橄榄枝象征和平,并把象征和平的鸽子的图画或模型叫做和平鸽。{dove of peace. According to The Old Testament·Genesis VIII, 47 days after the floodwaters came to the earth, Noah sent out a dove from the ark the Lord had shut him in. When the dove returned to him in the evening with a freshly plucked olive leaf in its beak, Noah knew that the water had receded from the earth. Later generations turned the dove and the olive branch into symbols of peace, and call pictures or models of the dove‘dove of peace’.} |
