STRONGS G1218:
δῆμος, -ου ὁ, the people, the mass of the people assembled in a public place: Acts 12:22; Acts 19:33; ἄγειν [R G], εἰσελθεῖν εἰς τὸν δῆμον: Acts 17:5 [L T Tr WH προαγ.]; Acts 19:30. [From Homer down.]
[Synonyms: δῆμος, λαός: in classic Greek δῆμος denotes the people as organized into a body politic, λαός the unorganized people at large. But in biblical Greek λαός is used especially of the chosen people of God; δῆμος on the other hand (found only in Acts) denotes the people of a heathen city. Cf. Trench § 98; Schmidt ch. 199.]
