---Success corrupts but not for Joseph. He refused to sin against God and do this great wickedness. Unfaithful against her husband and marriage vow, the wife of Potiphar is willing to do a great wickedness.

---God through Moses lays out the law of proper relationships between husband and wife. Also the biblical-professional way of living in high-places. Distancing.

---She accused Joseph falsely that he wanted to rape her and is cast in a prison.

---God was with Joseph (Genesis 39:21). In essence, anyone who is converted of his/her ways have God with them. He is an ever help in any trouble a person may encounter. It is one of the Leitmotifs of the Bible. Hope, comfort, forgiveness, happiness, security, rescue, all has God with the person.

---The role of God making Joseph prosper because He is with Him is emphasized in Genesis 39:23 again. The Spirit of God make Moses see this great truth that no matter the bad circumstances, Moses in Midian hiding from the Pharaoh of Egypt, Thutmosis III, degraded from palace to desert survival, he, Moses has also God "with Him".

---Moses find comfort in Joseph's history because he was also raised in Egypt and did the same as Joseph. Moses also counted the riches of Egypt not as a treasure but humbled himself before God.

---Joseph was innocent. Moses was guilty of manslaughter. He killed someone. Joseph suffered. Moses was suffering writing this account in 1460 BC in the Midian desert. Moses already wrote Job the epic history that gave himself also a lot of comfort. God with Him.

---We also have God with us. Immanuel. In our lives. Now.
