I follow John's blog type thing, and I read this the other week. It's really cool. He gives like a line-by-line commentary for this song, explaining why he wrote this and why he wrote that and just his thoughts & all that jazz. It's so good to be able to see where he's coming from and what he was thinking at the time. Things like this get me so amped and excited, it's a special thing for a writer to let the listener/reader gain more insight into the who, what, where, when, why etc ... So, high-five...

"On Friday a thief on Sunday a king
Jesus obviously wasn’t a thief, but he was crucified between 2 thieves and thus treated like a thief on one day yet risen as a king only a few days later. I wanted this line to express the contrast between the 2 perceptions of Jesus that changed so quickly in a short amount of time. The colloquialism allows for a little exaggeration and helps me make this contrast more apparent."
