Mingled People
Holman Bible Dictionary
KJV term for foreigners who are perhaps of mixed race and are associated with a dominant population (Jeremiah 25:20 ,Jeremiah 25:20,25:24; Jeremiah 50:37; Ezekiel 30:5 ). Modern translations generally replace mingled people with foreigners or with foreign plus a noun suitable to the context (folk, tribes, troops). The underlying Hebrew consists of the same three consonants as the term for Arabia. Modern translations follow the alternate vocalization and read Arabia or Arabs at Ezekiel 30:5 .
