Genesis 8:10
"And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark;"

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

And he stayed yet other seven days,.... As he had stayed seven days between the sending out of the raven and the dove, so he stayed seven days more after

he had sent out the dove, and it returned to him, waiting patiently for his deliverance, and the signs of it; though he could have been glad to have known its near approach, for which he made the experiments be did: and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark; very probably the selfsame dove he had sent out before.
