Potiphar's wife tried repeatedly to seduce Joseph, but Joseph would not have anything to do with her. He would not betray his master's confidence or sin against God. One day she caught him by his garment. He squirmed out of it and fled, leaving her holding it. She used the coat as "evidence" that Joseph had attempted to rape her. Without proper investigation, Joseph's master ordered him to be thrown into prison.
