The term to extend an olive branch means to make an offer of peace or reconciliation. This term has Biblical origins, coming from the section of the Old Testament that deals with the flood; the sign that the flood is over is an olive branch brought back to the ark by a dove.
Based on my studies, the olive branch can also mean a symbol of a new beginning. When the dove returned with the olive branch, Noah and the others knew that the waters had subsided and now it was about time to start a new beginning with Our Heavenly Father, Yahweh.ur Sages say that the olive branch is not food for the dove but because the dove likes freedom, it chose to leave the Ark. Rabbi Hirsh adds that the dove is not a symbol of peace but a symbol of freedom.
