It was mentioned in Genesis 39 four times that the Lord was with Joseph (vv 2, 3, 21, 23). Six times Joseph's hand were referred to (vv 3, 4, 6, 8, 22, 23). He was indeed "a prosperous man" (v2), "a goodly person, and well favoured" (v6) and "which he did, the Lord made it to prosper" (v23).

Consider in this chapter Joseph' reactions to
* Slavery (v2)- boundless energy
* Sin (v9) - blessed inability
* Slander (vv20-21)- beautiful integrity
