Context of Genesis 39:13
11And it came to pass about this time, that Joseph went into the house to do his work; and there was none of the men of the house there within. 12And she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me: and he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and went outside. And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and had fled outside, 14That she called to the men of her house, and spoke to them, saying, See, he hath brought in an Hebrew to us to mock us; he came in to me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice: 15And it came to pass, when he heard that I raised my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled, and went outside.

- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 1-23Verses 1-23 - Joseph in Potiphar‘s House According to our reckoning, Perez and Zerah were born when Judah was in his twenty-eighth year, and therefore, Joseph in his twenty-fourth.

- Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 13-18Verses 13-18 Joseph's mistress, having tried in vain to make him a guilty man, endeavoured to be avenged on him. Those that have broken the bonds of modesty, will never be held by the bonds of truth.

It is well there is a day of discovery coming, in which all shall appear in their true characters.Read the comment

He helped Joseph succeed and become a blessing to others (see study notes on 12:1–9; 28:16–22), even while Joseph was a slave and later in prison.Read the comment
