Banish From Sanctuary

I think it refers to John the Baptist. He called Jesus "the one who will come behind me". John was imprisoned ("In my dungeon") and executed ("I hear the hangman coming, wait for execution")

I think it's about a fallen prophet.

I agree. And he blames Christ that he didn't saved him. ("You talk of love not for me") "I can't understand you famous son" - he says to God.

"I hear the hangman coming" John the baptist was decapitated. Still i think the song is about John and that is only an error.

I think that this is about John the baptist but could also be taken from anyone who feels that God or Jesus isn't helping them any with the lines like "In shadows I'm walking, and caught in loneliness, deliverance I wait for but how long?" Where the person either John or someone in general is looking to God or Jesus to do fix all their problems or save them from their grief. I believe the last verse though would be like Christs answer to their pleas especially the "They believe in me Look! The signs are near to perform my task, to perform my way to perform the way I walked, the way of the crucifix." There are multiple times in the Gospel of Matthew alone that Jesus says things like "Look! the time is near, the signs are near" such like that. John the Baptist was beheaded, though perhaps the last verse would be Christ's last plea on the Cross such as he did in the bible with "aloi aloi..." verse in Matthew. this is just my interpretation though.

I think that main meaning issue of this song is to describe role of John Baptist as one who prepare way for Jesus and subsequently must retreat to background (and be even imprisoned and finally executed) in order let Jesus standt out and perform his great final task. He in fact (in the hidden soul) understandt that this must be like this but within his cell seize him doubts if Jesus is really “chossen one whose coming he announced” as some of Jesus opinions and deeds are incomprehensible and confusing for him (and it indeed must be as Jesus is supposed to be trully anointed one and therefore “greater” than John). But as well he is seized by fear about his next fate (and potential death) as any “ordinary” mortal men in this situation. Follows famous answers of Jesus to John Baptist emmisars concerning doubts about Jesus chosenness, whose implicitly confirms that Jesus is really chosen one (son of God) determined to perform his way to crucifix and reedem mankind by his blood.\n\n>>> Read more\nanonymous\n12345\nclick a star to vote\nMar 19th 2021\nreport\nI think that main meaning issue of this song is to describe role of John Baptist as one who prepare way for Jesus and subsequently must retreat to background (and be even imprisoned and finally executed) in order let Jesus standt out and perform his great final task.
