Hobbes defines enemies only negatively as non-subjects, including banished men

Evidence

Enemies are not subjects (“all men that are not subjects are either Enemies, or else they have ceased from being so, by some precedent covenants,” ch. 28, 219), and “a banished man” is “a lawful enemy of the Common-wealth that banished him” (ch. 28, 218). — Gil Anidjar, The Jew, the Arab, 364
