JOSEPH is only 17 years old when he is taken down to Egypt. He sold to a man named Potiphar. This man works for the king of Egypt, who is called Pharaoh.

Joseph works hard for his master, Potiphar. So when Joseph grows older, Potiphar puts him in charge of his whole house.

Joseph grows up to be a very good-looking man, and Potiphar's wife wants him to lay in bed with him. Joseph knew that, that was wrong, and told the wife he would not do that. Potiphar's wife got very angry. When her husband came home, she lies to him and says that Joseph tried to sleep with her, Potiphar believes his wife, and got angry with Joseph. So he has him thrown into prison.

Joseph got sent to jail because his brothers were jealous that his dad loved him the best and gave him a beautiful coat. To punish him they sent him to jail and put goat's blood all over his coat so it looked like he was dead. Jacob (the father) was extremely sad.
