Plb. 4.52.7 (pl.), Str. 14.4.3 (pl.), Plu. 2.1096b, etc. (both forms in pr. nn., Λεωβώτης Hdt. 7.204, Λαβώτας X. HG 1.2.18, etc.).

I

1 in Il., λαός (λαοί) usu. means men, i.e. soldiers, both of the whole army and smaller divisions, κριτὸς ἔγρετο λ. Ἀχαιῶν 7.434; λαὸν ἀγείρειν 16.129; πολὺν ὤλεσα λαόν 2.115: pl., ἅμα τῷ γε.. ἄριστοι λ. ἕποντ ’ ib. 578; στίχες ἀσπιστάων λ. 4.91; periphr., στρατὸς λαῶν ib. 76; λαῶν ἔθνος 13.495; mostly including both foot and horse, as 2.809; but sts. λαός denotes foot, as opp. horse, 7.342; also, a land army, opp. a fleet, 4.76, 9.424, 10.14; also, the common men, opp. their leaders, 2.365, 13.108; but

2. in Od., λαοί, more rarely λαός, almost always means men or people; as subjects of a prince, e.g. 3.214, 305, al. (λαοί is sts. so used in Il., e.g. 17.226, 24.611; λαοὶ ἀγροιῶται country- folk, 11.676; work-people, 17.390); of sailors, Od. 14.248; so after Hom., ναυτικὸς λεώς seafaring folk, A. Pers. 383; πᾶς ὁ χειρῶναξ λεώς S. Fr. 844; ὁ γεωργικὸς λεώς Ar. Pax 920 (lyr.): in sg., slave, τὸν Εὐρυσθέως λεών, of Heracles, Hecat. 23 J.; and so perh. λεὼς αὔτοικος GDI 5533e (Zeleia): more generally, μέροπες λαοί, i.e. man kind, A. Supp. 90 (lyr.); λ. ἐγχώριοι the natives, ib. 517, cf. Od. 6.194; esp. in Egypt, of the fellahin, PRLaws 42.11 - 16 (iii B. C.), PSI 4.380.5 (iii B. C.), etc.; civil population, opp. priests and soldiers, OGI 90.12 (Rosetta, ii B. C.), cf. 225.8 (Milet., iii B. C.), al.

3. people assembled, as in the theatre, ὁ πολὺς λαῶν ὄχλος Ar. Ra. 676, cf. 219 (both lyr.); esp. in the Ecclesia, αἱ στίχες τῶν λαῶν Id. Eq. 163: hence the phrase ἀκούετε λεῴ hear O people ! - the usual way of beginning proclamations at Athens, like our Oyez ! Sus. 1.1, Ar. Pax 551, Av. 448; τιμῶσιν οἱ πάντες λεῴ ib. 1275; δεῦρ’ ἴτε, πάντες λεῴ Arist. Fr. 384; Ἀττικὸς λεώς A. Eu. 681; ὁ πολὺς λεώς the multitude, Pl. R. 458d, etc.

4. in LXX, of the people, as opp. priests and Levites, 1Es 5:46; in NT, of Jews, opp. Gentiles, Mat 2:6, Luk 2:10, al., cf. SIG 1247 (Jewish tombstones); of Christians, opp. heathen, Act 15:14, al.

II a people, i.e. all who are called by one name, first in Pi., Δωριεῖ λαῷ O. 8.30; Λυδῶν δὲ λαὸς καὶ Φρυγῶν A. Pers. 770; ξύμπας Ἀχαιῶν λαός S. Ph. 1243, cf. OT 144, etc.; ἱππόται λαοί, i.e. the Thessalians, Pi. P. 4.153, cf. 9.54, N. 1.17. (The resemblance between λαός people and λᾶος stone (cf. λᾶας) is implied in Il. 24.611 λαοὺς δὲ λίθους ποίησε Κρονίων (in the story of Niobe); and so Pi. explains the word from the legend of Deucalion, O. 9.46, cf. Epich. 122, Apollod. 1.7.2; but cf. Philoch. 12.) (From λᾱϝ -, as shown by the pr.names Λαϝοπτόλεμος GDI 3151, ϝιόλαϝος ib.3132 (Corinth): hence prob. λήϊτον.)

Winer's Grammar, § 19, 1; the name is transferred to the community of Christians, as that which by the blessing of Christ has come to take the place of the theocratic people of Israel, Heb 4:9; Rev 18:4; particularly to a church of Christians gathered from among the Gentiles, Act 15:14; Rom 9:25ff; 1Pe 2:10; with εἰς περιποίησιν added, 1Pe 2:9; περιούσιος, Tit 2:14, cf.
