Outside The Gates of Eden

This week the guys discuss Dylan's use of the bible, religious imagery, and spirituality in his work prior to his conversion to Christianity in the late 1970's. 

-Why does Dylan make use of the Bible and religious imagery so frequently in the 1960's?
-What does his use of the Bible suggest about his relationship to it?
-What can be learned about the way he chooses to utilize language?
