Gen 39:11-12 And it came to pass about this time, that Joseph went into the house to do his business; and there was none of the men of the house there within.
12 And she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me: and he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and got him out.
KJV
I have not been able to find anything the Bible says about Joseph in a negative light. Joseph was not perfect, he was not sinless, he had the same nature we all have, but Joseph was wise, wise beyond his years. When placed in a position of temptation Joseph ran from it, Joseph fled from the place he could fall into sin. I wonder how many sins I could have avoided, could avoid, if I would just run from the place of temptation. When a TV program comes on and I wonder if I should watch or not instead of watching for a time I should run. When an evil thought comes into my mind instead of dwelling on it for a time I should run. How many sins could be put away if we would just run away from temptation. Joseph was wise in that he ran.
