Great question, but it’s actually the wrong question. It’s a word picture, not a strict analogy. The Bible cares about “From what were people ransomed?”, not “From whom were people ransomed?” The picture of that of substitutionary atonement, being ransomed from our sins, not particularly paying the ransom to somebody.
