John 1:32 says..." I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode on him". The turtle dove played a significant sacrificial role in The Bible. It also signified the arrival of Spring. Just a few verses earlier in John 1:29, John describes seeing Jesus as "the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sins of the world". Lamb of God along with the dove is John foretelling that Jesus will be the sacrifice that atones for the sins of the world.
