In this chapter our hero Joseph is sold into slavery to Potiphar, the chief steward to Pharaoh, and given charge of the entire household. Potiphar trusts him so completely he pays no attention to anything but the food he eats. Joseph is described as fit and handsome and becomes the target of temptations by Potiphar's wife. We see here a young man who seems to have it all: the love of God and fortune of his slave owner. He is living a good life given his circumstances. Yet all the while he must fight off the advances of this woman. Finally she accuses him of rape and Potiphar, without question, lets his fury rule his reason and throwns Joseph into jail. Doing the right thing for the right reasons doesn't always make our lives easy. Jesus said blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness. Joseph resists temptation and is cast into the darkness and even there he rises to esteem because he is with God. Remaining with God is one of the great lessons of this story and remembering there is always redemption for the faithful.
