Can anyone explain some of the biblical imagery used in the novel?

which novel/?
i've only read one, if you could tell me which novel you've read that you've seen biblical allusions in, that would be a big help for me
thank you very much

well, i've only read 'heart of darkness.' the biblical imagery found in that would be the river, which is compared to a snake, (satan), tempting marlow, (adam) to explore it. by following the river, marlow gains the "knowledge of good and evil"
