Contextual Overview
21And David comes to the two hundred men who were too faint to go after David, and whom they cause to abide at the Brook of Besor, and they go out to meet David, and to meet the people who [are] with him, and David approaches the people, and asks of them of welfare. 22And every bad and worthless man, of the men who have gone with David, answers, indeed, they say, "Because that they have not gone with us we do not give to them of the spoil which we have delivered, except each his wife and his children, and they lead away and go." 23And David says, "You do not do so, my brothers, with that which YHWH has given to us, and He preserves us, and gives the troop which comes against us into our hand; 24and who listens to you in this thing? For as the portion of him who was brought down into battle, so also [is] the portion of him who is abiding by the vessels—they share alike." 25And it comes to pass from that day and forward, that he appoints it for a statute and for an ordinance for Israel to this day. 26And David comes to Ziklag, and sends of the spoil to [the] elderly of Judah, to his friends, saying, "Behold, a blessing for you of the spoil of the enemies of YHWH," 27to those in Beth-El, and to those in South Ramoth, and to those in Jattir, 28and to those in Aroer, and to those in Siphmoth, and to those in Eshtemoa, 29and to those in Rachal, and to those in the cities of the Jerahmeelites, and to those in the cities of the Kenites,30and to those in Hormah, and to those in Chor-Ashan, and to those in Athach,

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.
