Who are they in historical contrast alongside an exegetical view?
Are sorcerers the greeks?
Are dogs the Roman's?

Are they both liars and thieves attempting to enter the kingdom without a key to a gate?

Sin is personified in the scripture. Also, we do not wrestle against flesh and blood:

Ephesians 6:10-18 KJV
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

Therefore we are called to refrain from calling any person common or unclean.

Acts 10:24-35 KJV
24 And the morrow after they entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius waited for them, and had called together his kinsmen and near friends.
25 And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him.
26 But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.
27 And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that were come together.
28 And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.
29 Therefore came I unto you without gainsaying, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me?
30 And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing,
31 And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
32 Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose surname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of one Simon a tanner by the sea side: who, when he cometh, shall speak unto thee.
33 Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded thee of God.
34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:
35 But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.

The above is the primary explanation of the vision Peter had received immediately before these things.

"Elohim has shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean"... (Acts 10:28).

The Torah must be fully internalized:

Exodus 20:13
13 You shalt not ratsach-murder-kill.

Exodus 22:18
18 You shalt not suffer a witch to live.

Sin is personified. Evil is personified. Such things are not contracted by physical contact but by speaking, (prince of the power of the air), and hearing and believing, that is, learning erroneous doctrine and putting sin, error, and evils into practice.

What therefore does it mean to not suffer a witch to live? (Exo 22:18)? Does it mean to physical kill anyone claiming to be a witch? Obviously not because that would make the slayer, killer, or executioner, a murderer, (Exo 20:13). Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry, (1 Sam 15:23), and such things are erroneously taught in doctrines full of leaven. The witch is the spirit of the false prophet teaching, which comes by speaking, (in Biblical times), and by hearing and believing the error which was spoken and taught, (prince of the power of the air: spoken word, speaking words of deception).

Rebellion against what language?.

Where do you see anything about language in 1 Samuel 15:23?

1 Samuel 15:22-24 KJV
22 And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.
23 For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king.
24 And Saul said unto Samuel, I have sinned: for I have transgressed the commandment of the LORD, and thy words: because I feared the people, and obeyed their voice.

Example of greek sorceror and sun god worship.
[ Circe, in Greek legend, a sorceress, the daughter of Helios, the sun god, and of the ocean nymph Perse. She was able by means of drugs and incantations to change humans into wolves, lions, and swine. The Greek hero Odysseus visited her island, Aeaea, with his companions, whom she changed into swine.]
Greek swine.!
Interestingly didnt the greeks defile the jewish temple with swine?
[ " Antiochus IV (Epiphanes), the king of Syria, captured Jerusalem in 167 BC and desecrated the Temple by offering the sacrifice of a pig on an altar to Zeus (the Abomination of Desolation). In seeking to prohibit Judaism and Hellenize the Jews, Antiochus forbade their religious practices and commanded that copies of the Law be burned, all of which is related by Josephus in the Antiquities of the Jews (XII.5.4). ]
Are sorcerers the greeks?
Are dogs the Roman's?

Are they both liars and thieves attempting to enter the kingdom without a key to a gate
