What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Jerome
And when the chief priests and Pharisees heard his parables, they realized that he was speaking about them. And they sought to arrest him, but they feared the crowds because they regarded him as a prophet. Though they had hard hearts and were dull in their disbelief and impiety towards the Son of God, they could not deny the clear accusations, and they understood that all of the Lord's judgments were directed against them. Therefore, they indeed wanted to kill him, but they feared the crowds because they regarded him as a prophet. …
Thomas Aquinas
And there follows the malice: "and seeking to lay hands on him, they feared the multitudes, because they held him as a prophet." And this is clear.
