Joseph's Story

“GENESIS”
BIBLE STUDIES—FREE, ONLINE, CAN BE COPIED

Lesson Title: He Is Promoted in Prison. (Gen.
39:21-23)

 



Joseph was imprisoned “where the king’s prisoners
were bound” (39:20
; see Psalm 105:17-20).  Though
understandably angry (see 39:19), Potiphar put Joseph in the “house of the captain of the
guard” (40:3),—
certainly not the worst prison available. 
For a foreigner charged with raping and Egyptian official’s wife, Joseph’s
sentence might be considered light.
