Exegesis
The coordinated clause ekathisan epʼ autous {ἐκάθισαν ἐπʼ αὐτούς | eká-thi-san epí au-toús} “they sat upon them” specifies the appointed judges as the implicit subject.
In context — Revelation 20:4
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given to them. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of the testimony of Jesus and because of the word of God , and also those who had not worshiped the beast nor its image, and had not received the mark on their forehead and on their hand; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
