Exegesis

The main verb ephobēthēsan {ἐφοβήθησαν | e-phob-ḗ-thē-san} ‘they were afraid’ shifts focus to their reaction, with the noun phrase tous ochlous {τοὺς ὄχλους | toùs ó-chlous} ‘the crowds’ as the object of fear.

In contextMatthew 21:46

And though they were seeking to seize Him , they feared the crowds, because the people regarded Him as a prophet .
