These are the kings who ruled in the land of Edom before any king ruled over the Israelites: [Genesis 36.31]
It was the descendants of Esau who first started having kings. Esau, who sold his birthright...
It is interesting that it would be later that the descendants of Jacob would think it necessary to have their own king.
Why would Israel want to mimic Edom?
Father help me to consider the things I desire. May I be found wanting only what You want!
