STRONGS G1713:
ἔμπορος [see ἐν, III. 3], -ου, , (πόρος);
1. equivalent to ἐπ’ ἀλλοτρίας νεὼς πλέων μισθοῦ, ἐπιβάτης; so Hesychius, with whom agree Phavorinus and the Schol. ad Aristophanes, Plutarch, 521; and so the word is used by Homer.
2. after Homer one on a journey, whether by sea or by land, especially for traffic; hence,
3. a merchant (opposed to κάπηλος a retailer, petty tradesman): Revelation 18:3, 11, 15, 23; ἄνθρωπος ἔμπορος (see ἄνθρωπος, 4 a.), Matthew 13:45 [WH text omits ἄνθρ.]. (Sept. for סֹחֵד and רֹכֵל.)
