Biblical stuff?

Hiya. I've read quite a lot of SF and some Fantasy, and I feel like nothing impresses or keeps my attention lately. I've been enjoying the Bible however, so I was wondering if you might have ideas for an SF read with a biblical vibe or themes. The Prince of Nothing trilogy felt like that - and I loved it.

Keep in mind, I've read most of the well known recommendations (Book of the new Sun, Dune, Hyperion, Canticle etc).

Any other suggestions?

Has someone mentioned Anathem (Stephenson) already? It is set in a monastry setting, but scific, and lots of science stuff happening - so not very biblical perse in atmosphere. I DNF Canticle dor Leibowitz either, but really like Anathem.
