Strongs #G1484 ἔθνος ethnos, group/band of people.

ἔθνος (éthnos) primarily refers to a body of people or company. It can denote various specific groups, including:

• Band of Comrades: A group of companions or associates (e.g., Iliad 3.32, 7.115).
• Host of Men: A large assembly or crowd of men (e.g., Iliad 13.495).
• Particular Tribes or Nations: Specific ethnic groups or tribes (e.g., Iliad 12.330 for Lycians, 17.552 for Achaeans), though it has more to do with the association than the tribal generation/genus for which the word phulé (see #G5443) is used.
• Swarms or Flocks of Animals: Groups of animals like bees, birds, or other creatures (e.g., Iliad 2.87 for bees, Odyssey 10.526 for the dead).
• Groups of Men or Women: Collectives of men or women (e.g., Pindar's Odes).
• Group of the Dead (Erinyes): Mythological figures such as the Erinyes (e.g., Aeschylus' Eumenides 366).
