The answer is: They were afraid the Pharisees would put them out of the synagogue

John 12:42-43 - Many leaders believed in Jesus but clung to their positions, fearing excommunication from the synagogue. This reflects a crucial theme of fear versus faith seen throughout Scripture, where societal pressures can silence personal belief, akin to Peter's denial (Luke 22:54-62). Their struggle highlights the cost of discipleship.
