Demas
Easton's Bible Dictionary
A companion and fellow-labourer of Paul during his first imprisonment at Rome (Phlm 1:1:24; Col 4:14). It appears, however, that the love of the world afterwards mastered him, and he deserted the apostle (2 Tim 4:10).
International Standard Bible Encyclopedia
de'-mas (Demas, "popular"): According to Col 4:14; 2 Tim 4:10; Phlm 1:24, one who was for a time a "fellow-worker" with Paul at Rome (Col, Philem), but at last, "having loved this present world," forsook the apostle and betook himself to Thessalonica (2 Tim). No other particulars are given concerning him. See Apostasy; Demetrius.
