Parashat Metzora
The two birds are part of the purification process of a M'TZORA. Also included in the procedure are EIZOV (hyssop) and EITZ EREZ (cedar). Both are pictured on line with the doves. The M'tzora is required to shave the hair from his body, including, as specifically mentioned in the Torah, the eyebrows. In the picture, one eyebrow has already been shaved. The 2+1 on the lamb are for 2 male sheep and 1 female - part of the procedure of purification. The house in the picture has a NEGA. In the lower right are the three targets of the blood and oil of the purification process - the earlobe, thumb, and big toe. Then there is a large SHABBAT, as in Shabbat HaGadol, when the lamb for Korban Pesach was brought into one's house.
