者 http://www.cantonese.sheik.co.uk/dictionary/characters/591/

Some example terms with 者

違抗規則 = defy the rule; 違抗規則者 = those who defy the rule (person)
Edition:
Example for [2] a particle combining with some words to form adverbials-
"兵者，凶器也" 。
兵者=(definition of) army;
凶器也 = is instrument of destruction

“……者……也” is common used as definition of something in classical chinese (文言). This two words should be translated together which means "is". e.g. 廉颇者，赵之良将也。 – tsh Feb 13 '18 at 6:28
