Albert Barnes Commentary Ezekiel 30:5

"Ethiopia, and Put, and Lud, and all the mingled people, and Cub, and the children of the land that is in league, shall fall with them by the sword." — Ezekiel 30:5 (ASV)

Libya, and Lydia - Or, as in Ezekiel 27:10, Phut and Lud.

The mingled people - Foreigners, who settled in Egypt.

The Saite dynasty of Egyptian kings was especially favorable to foreign immigrants. Hophra employed many of them in his armies, and in this way, according to Herodotus, lost the affections of his Egyptian subjects. See Jeremiah 25:20 note.

Chub - The word occurs here only. It was some tribe in alliance with Egypt, either of African race like Lud and Phut, or settlers like the “mingled people.” A not-improbable suggestion connects it with Coptos, of which the Egyptian form was Qeb, Qebt, or Qabt.

The men of the land that is in league - Rather, the children of the land of the covenant, i.e., of Israel .

After the destruction of Jerusalem, Jews withdrew into Egypt (Jeremiah 43:7). Many of them would naturally enough be found in the Egyptian armies. This is in favor of the later date assigned to this section.
