# Then Pilate gave Jesus over to them to be crucified
Though it was Roman soldiers who actually crucified Jesus, word "them" here refers to "the Jews" [John 19:14](./14.md), whom Pilate allowed to crucify Jesus. You can translate this in an active form. Alternate translation: "So Pilate gave the Jews power over Jesus so they could crucify Jesus" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])
