Peter continues his speech to the Jews that he began in [Acts 3:11](./11.md).

|
|
|
## whom you delivered up ##
|
|
|
|
"whom you brought to Pilate"
|
|
|
|
## and denied before the face of Pilate ##
|
|
|
|
"and you rejected him in Pilate's presence"
|
|
|
|
## when he had decided to release him ##
|
|
|
|
"when Pilate had decided to set Jesus free"
|
|
|
|
## for a murderer to be released to you ##
|
|
|
|
This can be translated with an active verb: "for Pilate to give a murderer to you."
|
|
|
|
## to be released to you ##
|
|
|
|
"to be given to you." This means "to be given as a favor." It does not mean "to be freed" as from a trap. |
