Contextual Overview
21When David came to the two hundred men who had been too exhausted to go with him and had been left at the Wadi Besor, they came out to meet him and to meet the troops with him. When David approached the men, he greeted them, 22but all the corrupt and worthless men among those who had gone with David argued, “Because they didn’t go with us, we will not give any of the plunder we recovered to them except for each man’s wife and children. They may take them and go.” 23But David said, “My brothers, you must not do this with what the Lord has given us. He protected us and handed over to us the raiders who came against us. 24Who can agree to your proposal? The share of the one who goes into battle is to be the same as the share of the one who remains with the supplies. They will share equally.” 25And it has been so from that day forward. David established this policy as a law and an ordinance for Israel and it still continues today. 26When David came to Ziklag, he sent some of the plunder to his friends, the elders of Judah, saying, “Here is a gift for you from the plunder of the Lord’s enemies.” 27He sent gifts to those in Bethel, in Ramoth of the Negev, and in Jattir; 28to those in Aroer, in Siphmoth, and in Eshtemoa; 29to those in Racal, in the towns of the Jerahmeelites, and in the towns of the Kenites; 30to those in Hormah, in Bor-ashan, and in Athach;
Bible Verse Review

Bethel: Probably not the celebrated city of this name, but Bethul a city of Simeon - Joshua 19:4, supposed to be the same as Bethelia, mentioned by Sozomen as belonging to Gaza, well peopled, and having several temples remarkable for their structure and antiquity; and which Jerome says, in his life of Hilarion, was five short days' journey from Pelusium. Genesis 28:19, Joshua 16:2, Judges 1:22, Judges 1:23, 1 Kings 12:29
south Ramoth: A city of Simeon; so called to distinguish it from Ramoth Gilead beyond Jordan. Joshua 19:8, Ramath
Jattir: Joshua 15:48, Joshua 21:14

Gill's Notes on the Bible
To [them] which [were] in Bethel,.... One part of the spoil was sent to them; not to those in Bethel, in the tribe of Benjamin, but in Kirjathjearim, called Bethel, or the house of God, because the ark was there, see 1 Samuel 7:1; moreover, this place was also called Baalah, which some think is referred to here, see Joshua 15:9;
and to [them] which [were] in south Ramoth; a city of the tribe of Simeon, which lay within the lot of Judah; of which see Joshua 19:8;
and to [them] which [were] in Jattir; a city of the tribe of Judah,
Joshua 19:8- :.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Bethel - i. e. Bethuel 1 Chronicles 4:30, quite in the south near Beer-sheba, Hormah, and Ziklag; or Bethul Joshua 19:4, one of the cities of the Simeonites.
South Ramoth - Rather, “Ramoth of the South country” 1 Samuel 27:10; 1Sa 30:1, 1 Samuel 30:14, so-called to distinguish it from Ramoth-Gilead, one of the Simeonite cities Joshua 19:8. Shimei, the Ramathite 1 Chronicles 27:27, who was over David’s vineyards, was evidently a native of this Ramath. See below 1 Samuel 30:28.
Jattir - “In the mountains” of Judah, and one of the priests’ cities, is identified with ‘Attir, ten miles south of Hebron.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Samuel 30:27. To them which were in Beth-el — This was in the tribe of Ephraim.
South Ramoth — So called to distinguish it from Ramoth Gilead, beyond Jordan. This Ramoth belonged to the tribe of Simeon, Joshua 19:8.
In Jattir — Supposed by Calmet to be the same as Ether, Joshua 15:42, but more probably Jattir, Joshua 15:48. It was situated in the mountains, and belonged to Judah.
