Contextual Overview
21 David came to the 200 men who had been too tired to follow him and had been left at the river of Besor. They went out to meet David and the people who were with him. David came near the people and said hello to them. 22 Then all the sinful men of no worth who had gone with David said, "They did not go with us. So we will not give them anything of what we have taken, except for each man's wife and children. Each man may take them and go." 23 David said, "You must not do so with what the Lord has given us, my brothers. He has kept us safe and has given us the army that came against us. 24 Who would listen to you about this? The share of those who stay by our things will be the same as the share of those who go to the battle. They will share alike." 25 He made it a law for Israel from that day to this. 26 When David came to Ziklag, he sent some of the things he had taken in battle to the leaders of Judah, his friends. He said, "See, here is a gift for you from what was taken from those who hate the Lord. 27 It is for those in Bethel, Ramoth of the Negev, Jattir, 28 Aroer, Siphmoth, Eshtemoa, 29 and Racal. It is for those in the cities of the Jerahmeelites, the cities of the Kenites, 30 Hormah, Borashan, 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.
