Reading for March 25th

Read Genesis 39.1-23
Joseph and Potiphar's wife.
The story of Joseph returns after the interlude with Tamar and Judah.
In verse 1: Pharaoh is the title for the king of Egypt.
In verse  2: the refrain the Lord was with Joseph begins and concludes the episode (vv. 21, 23).
In verses 7-20: Some parallels exist between this scene and the ancient Egyptian story entitled "A Tale of Two Brothers."
A man resists the sexual invitations of his brother's wife bit then falsely accused.
