We were reading the account of Joseph and Potiphar's wife today in bible study and the wording and situation struck me as harkening back to Adam and Eve. ("That woman you gave me" vs. "The Hebrew you gave us" and "you are only not to eat the fruit..." vs. "kept nothing from him except his wife" and more). It strikes me that Joseph is a second Adam of sorts as a type of Christ, and this may be the flip side of the coin from the Adam/Eve situation. Adam acted poorly and was left blaming God -- Joseph acted well and left Potiphar's wife blaming Potiphar. Maybe it's finding something that's not there, but it might be worth exploring.

Well, I'm no Bible scholar, but it sounds fitting to me, I like it. The idea that Joseph's life was a picture of Christ's success where Adam failed seems right on.
