Comments:
The sign contains the quote from the book of Genesis (chapter 8 verse 8), in which the dove with the olive branch in her mouth signals to Noah that the waters of the flood have come down. The verse is found on a sign whose shape resembles a whale with a dove of peace on it

In a nearby square (20 Golda Meir Street) is the continuation of the verse (Genesis 8:11):
"... nd the dove came in to him at eventide; and lo in her mouth an olive-leaf freshly plucked;"
