matthew 21:46 And when they sought to seize Him, they feared the multitudes, because they held Him to be a prophet.


      46. But when they sought to lay hands on him--which Luke (Lu 20:19) says they did "the same hour," hardly able to restrain their rage.
      they feared the multitude--rather, "the multitudes."
      because they took him for a prophet--just as they feared to say John's baptism was of men, because the masses took him for a prophet (Mt 21:26). Miserable creatures! So, for this time, "they left Him and went their way" (Mr 12:12).
