Lu'dim. (strife). Genesis 10:13; 1 Chronicles 1:11. A Mizraite people or tribe descended from Ludim, the son of Mizraim; also called Lydians. It is probable that the Ludim were settled to the west of Egypt, perhaps farther than any other Mizraite tribe.
Lud and the Ludim are mentioned in four passages of the prophets - Isaiah 66:19; Jeremiah 46:9; Ezekiel 27:10; Ezekiel 38:5. There can be no doubt that, but one nation is intended in these passages, and it seems that the preponderance of evidence is in favor of the Mizaraite Ludim.
