Scripture Post #1,669: *JOSEPH MARRIES*

 

  

Genesis 41:45:

"And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphnathpaaneah; and he gave him to wife Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On. And Joseph went out over all the land of Egypt."

There's always a ram in the bush! In the midst of godless Egypt, where idolatry was very prevalent, GOD made sure Joseph had a godly woman to marry. Joseph married a priest's daughter. Being second in command to Pharaoh, Joseph probably could've chosen any woman of his choice — one of Pharaoh's daughters, perhaps? But, no. GOD made sure Joseph's wife was a godly woman; which was very rare to find in Egypt.
