In the context of the New Testament, it often refers to something that is common or accessible to the general populace, as opposed to being private or restricted.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Greek society, the concept of "démosios" was significant in distinguishing between what was owned or controlled by the state or community and what was private. Public spaces, resources, and responsibilities were integral to the functioning of Greek city-states, where civic participation and communal life were highly valued. This distinction between public and private was also evident in Roman society, which influenced the context of the New Testament era.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/1218.htm">démos</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>public<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>public (3), publicly (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 1219: δημόσιος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">δημόσιος</span></span>, <span class="greek2">δημοσίᾳ</span>, <span class="greek2">δημοσιον</span>, especially frequent in Attic;
