Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

39:13-18 Joseph's mistress, having tried in vain to make him a guilty man, endeavoured to be avenged on him. Those that have broken the bonds of modesty, will never be held by the bonds of truth. It is no new thing for the best of men to be falsely accused of the worst of crimes, by those who themselves are the worst of criminals. It is well there is a day of discovery coming, in which all shall appear in their true characters.


Exodus 23:1 "You shall not bear a false report; do not join your hand with a wicked man to be a malicious witness.
Proverbs 26:28 A lying tongue hates those it crushes, And a flattering mouth works ruin. (NASB ©1995)
