This verse sits inside a list of Edomite kings, a record of Esau's descendants who settled in Mount Seir and became the nation of Edom. The narrator is not telling a story but keeping a royal succession record: Bela son of Beor ruled from Dinhabah, and when he died, Jobab son of Zerah from Bozrah took the throne.
