Genesis 39:20

²⁰And cast Joseph into the prison, where the king’s prisoners were kept, and he was there shut up.

Genesis 39 continues Joseph's story in Egypt, detailing his rise to prominence in Potiphar's household, his steadfast resistance to sexual temptation, and his subsequent unjust imprisonment. Despite these severe setbacks, the narrative emphasizes God's constant presence and favor with Joseph, enabling him to prosper even in the most adverse circumstances. This chapter highlights Joseph's integrity and God's sovereign hand guiding his life, setting the stage for future events in the broader redemptive narrative.
