Exegesis
The final coordinated future basileusousin met autou {βασιλεύσουσιν μετʼ αὐτοῦ | ba-si-leú-sou-sin met au-toû} introduces a royal dimension, with the preposition met indicating participation “with Him” and the accusative phrase chilia ete {χίλια ἔτη | khí-li-a é-tē} delimiting the duration of this reign. The syntax moves from present evaluative description (“blessed and holy”) to future roles (priests and co-rulers), which is reflected by shifting from descriptive to promissory language in translation.
In context — Revelation 20:6
Blessed and holy is the one who has a share in the first resurrection. Over these, the second death has no authority; but they will be priests of God and of Christ , and they will reign with Him for a thousand years .
