Contextual Overview

²¹ Then David came to the two hundred men who had been too tired to follow him, who had stayed at the Besor Ravine. They came out to meet David and the people with him. When he came near, David greeted the men at the ravine. ²² But the evil men and troublemakers among those who followed David said, "Since these two hundred men didn't go with us, we shouldn't give them any of the things we recovered. Just let each man take his wife and children and go." ²³ David answered, "No, my brothers. Don't do that after what the Lord has given us. He has protected us and given us the enemy who attacked us. ²⁴ Who will listen to what you say? The share will be the same for the one who stayed with the supplies as for the one who went into battle. All will share alike." ²⁵ David made this an order and rule for Israel, which continues even today. ²⁶ When David arrived in Ziklag, he sent some of the things he had taken from the Amalekites to his friends, the leaders of Judah.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And to [them] which [were] in Rachal,.... Another city of the tribe of Judah, but nowhere else spoken of:

and to [them] which [were] in the cities of the Jerahmeelites: which lay to the south of Judah, 1 Samuel 27:10;

and to [them] which [were] in the cities of the Kenites; who dwelt in the wilderness of Judah, in the south of Arad, Judges 1:16.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Samuel 30:29. Them which were in Rachal — We know not where this place was; it is mentioned nowhere else in the Bible. Calmet conjectures that Hachilah, 1 Samuel 23:19, may be the same place; here we know David did conceal himself for some time, till the Ziphites endeavoured to betray him to Saul.

The cities of the Jerahmeelites — See before, 1 Samuel 27:10.

And-the cities of the Kenites — A very small tract on the southern coast of the Dead Sea.
