This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Mat 21:26. Φοβούμεθα, we fear) They were unwilling to confess their fear.-τὸν ὄχλον, the multitude) The multitude was scarcely likely to proceed at once to the extremity which the chief priests dreaded, yet it burned with ardent zeal in favour of John. And the Jewish population was wont, under sudden impulses, to assail, with the utmost violence, those who uttered, or were supposed to utter, impious things.-προφήτην, a prophet) sent from heaven, which had not happened for a long while.
