This is an important thing to consider when listening to Rainy Day Woman. Dylan claims that he did not write any weed songs and maybe I agree. I can see the biblical nature of Rainy Day Woman #12 & 35"
There was a woman caught in the act of adultery and all the religious leaders were surrounding her. There was only one who would stand up for her because he took the place of her condemnation. He said, "If any of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her."
There was no one righteous, not even one. Every one of them began to walk away. They deserved the same punishment. Everybody must get stoned!
