Exegesis
The aorist verb eipan {εἶπαν | eîpan} ‘they said’ introduces direct speech and governs the dative autō {αὐτῷ | autô} ‘to him,’ identifying Jesus as the one addressed.
In context — Mark 10:37
And they said to Him , “Grant to us that we may sit, one at Your right and one at Your left, in Your glory.”
