For my english class I have to find references to the Bible in music and such things and have spent the entire day looking for such a thing. Can you guys help out a bit? Only rule is that it cant be a direct quote. Thanks in advance.

Yeah, the teacher used Pulp Fiction as the example of what not to do. xD

If all else fails I will just go on with Halo and stuff... but I have no way of getting any footage of that... is there like some way I can pull videos from youtube or soemthing?

Wait, what do you mean by reference?

His example was the song Adam Raised a Cain by Bruce Springsteen
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-a2juEmeIZM&feature=related
It references Cain and his relationship with Adam in that Adam, having commited original sin, condemned Cain to the fate of being a sinner and to work for his life, through no fault of Cain at first.

I think I found one. Yay System of a Down! :D

Iron Maiden.
The "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son" Album, and "The Number of The Beast".

It doesn't directly quote the Bible, but they do tell some amazing stories.

Also, the numbers 6, 7, and 42.
