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.
