Exegesis
The aorist verb edoken {ἔδωκεν | é-dō-ken} takes hē thalassa {ἡ θάλασσα | hē thá-las-sa} as its subject and the complex object tous nekrous tous en autē {τοὺς νεκρούς τοὺς ἐν αὐτῇ | toûs ne-kroús toûs en au-tē}. The repeated article tous plus the prepositional phrase en autē functions adjectivally, specifying “the dead, the ones in it,” and underlines that none within the sea are exempt.
Again, tous nekrous tous en autois {τοὺς νεκρούς τοὺς ἐν αὐτοῖς | toûs ne-kroús toûs en au-toîs} repeats the object pattern, with the duplication of phraseology across sea, Death, and Hades emphasizing comprehensive resurrection from every possible domain of the dead.
In context — Revelation 20:13
And the sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them; and each one was judged according to their works .
