Description
Joseph's Full Story: Genesis 37 - 50Joseph's Obedience and Faithfulness to God:
Genesis 39:7-12
7 and after a while his master's wife took notice of Joseph and said, "Come to bed with me!"
8 But he refused. "With me in charge," he told her, "my master does not concern himself with anything in the house; everything he owns he has entrusted to my care. 9 No one is greater in this house than I am. My master has withheld nothing from me except you, because you are his wife. How then could I do such a wicked thing and sin against God?"
10 And though she spoke to Joseph day after day, he refused to go to bed with her or even be with her. 11 One day he went into the house to attend to his duties, and none of the household servants was inside. 12 She caught him by his cloak and said, "Come to bed with me!" But he left his cloak in her hand and ran out of the house.

You summarized SO MUCH in just a few panels.
No lie, I kind of giggled at how Joseph looks like an absolute fitness god in panel 3, lol.
God bless, thank you for sharing. I look up to Joseph a LOT. I get a lot of dreams like him.

And after everything he'd been forced to pass through... it'd definetely had to be with God's grace Joseph could forgive his half-brothers (adding some of his own will, as well). One of the best stories I've ever read of, portraying the whole essence of God's love/forgiveness to us, the sinners.
Perfect-o!

Recently, at my church, a speaker came and told us that his best friends were in the Bible. Once, he had been staying in a hotel without his wife. When he went downstairs to a restaurant to eat, and a woman came up to him. She was very pretty, and they started chatting. Soon, she started asking him about his room. For a moment, he thought, "No one would know if.." Then, at that moment, Out of the corner of his eye, he saw something move! He turned, and he saw Joseph, looking at him, and running down the hall. At that moment, he stood up, ran to his room, locked the door, and prayed.
Thank God (literally) for people from whose legacies we can learn. What Faith. Incredible.

Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN) will be playing the story of Joseph, son of Israel (Jacob) tonight at 11PM EST, 8PM Pacific.
There was he time he helped the baker and the cupbearer with their dreams (Cupbearer drank the wine for Pharoah, in case it was poisoned, and poured his drinks), and the baker provided Pharoah with bread to eat. The baker was stealing from the Pharoah's choice bread, and so, he was in prison. The cupbearer was accused of not giving Pharoah his drinks at the time he needed them, and so he was in prison. Joseph helped restore the Cupbearer's job, and the baker was executed a Joseph had said. Of course, the cupbearer forgot Joseph until he was giving Pharoah his daily drink, and remembered Joseph helping him get his job back. Thanks to Joseph's prophetic interpretation Egypt was saved from a famine and so was Caanian (the land of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. So, Joseph's brothers came to get grain and after serving his brothers food, Joseph finally forgave his brothers selling him into slavery. He even produced the bill of sale that had his brother's signature they got from the Ishmaelites and given to Potiphar, and after the brothers saw their signatures, Joseph tore up the bill of sale, and asked to have his whole family move in with him. Genesis 50 ends with the death of Joseph, Jacob, and the other 11 brothers, and starts with Exodus to learn about Moses and his life.

"Joseph's looks and handsome figure/ had attracted her attention/ every morning she wold beckon/ "Come and lie with me love"/ Joseph wanted to resist her/ till one day she grew to eager/ Joseph cried in vain/ "please stop, i dont believe in free love!"
From Potiphar "Joseph and the amazing technicolor dream coat"

Lovely portrayal of Joseph's journey...I also always enjoy the verses that explain the image(although I already know them by heart, it is a wonderful step back into my childhood when I first fell in love with the Lord). Thank you for your dedication and for how you use your talents for God.

Great! (but I think you gave him a tad bit to much muscle-power as a 'vice-pharao'
I'm somehow drawn to the background of the pharao part. I love it, the fat cow and the srasved cow, even the weaths. But I don't get the eagle like shapes. Do they refer to something?

Definately not christian by any stretch of the imagination, but the bible's got some good stories to read in it. Though from your illustration and the story, one would assume there is more to the story after he fled.
