Poor Joseph! He has a great life at home, and his brothers sell him to slavers. Then he works his way up in his master's house, and because he refuses the advances of his boss' wife he ends up in jail. It is cool to see that Joseph doesn't despair of these things, though, but instead works hard in every situation and is blessed by God. What a great encouragement!
I would like to say, though, that if I had been in Joseph's shoes I would have gone to my boss about his wife's inappropriate solicitations. I'm sure that would have caused some marital strife, and might still have gotten him tossed in prison (that was God's way of getting him where he needed to be, after all) - but I don't like taking things like that lying down (no pun intended).
