Genesis 39:13 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 39:13

And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his
garment in her hand
And so all hopes of succeeding in her addresses to him were over: and [he] was fled forth;
into the streets, or into some out house, where business was carried on by servants under him.

Genesis 39:13 In-Context

11 Now one day he went into the house to do his work, and none of the household servants was there.

12 She grabbed him by his garment and said, "Sleep with me!" But leaving his garment in her hand, he escaped and ran outside.

13 When she realized that he had left his garment with her and had run outside,

14 she called the household servants. "Look," she said to them, "my husband brought a Hebrew man to us to make fun of us. He came to me so he could sleep with me, and I screamed as loud as I could.

15 When he heard me screaming for help, he left his garment with me and ran outside."
