1 The Ishmaelites took Josephto Egyptand sold him to Potiphar, the king’s39.1 the king’s: See the note at 12.15.official in charge of the palace guard. 2,3 Ac 7.9.So Josephlived in the home of Potiphar, his Egyptian owner.
Soon Potiphar realized that the Lordwas helping Josephto be successful in whatever he did. 4 Potiphar liked Josephand made him his personal assistant, putting him in charge of his house and all of his property. 5 Because of Joseph, the Lordbegan to bless Potiphar’s family and fields. 6 Potiphar left everything up to Joseph, and with Josephthere, the only decision he had to make was what he wanted to eat.
Josephwas well-built and handsome, 7 4 Macc 2.2.and Potiphar’s wife soon noticed him. She asked him to make love to her, 8 but he refused and said, "My master isn’t worried about anything in his house, because he has placed me in charge of everything he owns. 9 No one in my master’s house is more important than I am. The only thing he hasn’t given me is you, and that’s because you are his wife. I won’t sin against God by doing such a terrible thing as this." 10 She kept begging Josephday after day, but he refused to do what she wanted or even to go near her.
11 One day, Joseph went to Potiphar’s house to do his work, and none of the other servants were there. 12 Potiphar’s wife grabbed hold of his coat and said, "Make love to me!" Joseph ran out of the house, leaving his coat there in her hands.
13 When this happened, 14 she called in her servants and said, "Look! This Hebrew has come just to make fools of us. He tried to rape me, but I screamed for help. 15 And when he heard me scream, he ran out of the house, leaving his coat with me."
16 Potiphar’s wife kept Joseph’s coat until her husband came home. 17 Then she said, "That Hebrew slave of yours tried to rape me! 18 But when I screamed for help, he left his coat and ran out of the house."
19 Potiphar became very angry 20 and threw Josephin the same prison where the king’s prisoners were kept.
While Josephwas in prison, 21 Ac 7.9.the Lordhelped him and was good to him. He even made the jailer like Josephso much that 22 he put him in charge of the other prisoners and of everything that was done in the jail. 23 The jailer did not worry about anything, because the Lordwas with Joseph and made him successful in all that he did.
