Potiphar

Potiphar was an influential Egyptian official during the time of Joseph, a biblical figure. As a captain of Pharaoh's guard, Potiphar was responsible for overseeing security and military matters. He trusted Joseph and appointed him as a supervisor in his household, giving him significant responsibility. However, Joseph later faced false accusations from Potiphar’s wife, leading to Joseph’s imprisonment. Despite this, Potiphar’s role highlights his position of power and influence within Egyptian society, reflecting the hierarchical structure of ancient Egypt where officials served the pharaoh and managed various departments.
