what did this phrase of Edomite Kings mean?

("Kings who reigned in Edom before they reigned a king in Israel.")


I dont really know the history behind it (does it mean they they didnt have a king in israel?) Can someone break down the entence and recapitulate what its saying?

Answer:

It means that the Kings who reigned Edom were there before a king ruled the children of Israel.

So, in fact, yes, the children of Israel did not have a king at the time.

Hope this helps! and if it doesnt then comment and i will elaborate for you.
