Questions 
Verse 10
- These days we recognize the dove as a symbol of peace, love and other good things (and the Holy Spirit, of course). For the people this was first written for, what would the dove have symbolized?
- Traditionally, the Spirit mentioned in 1:10 has been associated with the Holy Spirit (Holy Ghost). But does that have to be the case? Could it be referring to the Spirit of Christ?
