“And it came to pass, when his master heard the words of his wife, which she spake unto him, saying, After this manner did thy servant to me; that his wrath was kindled.”
When his master heard the story his wife told him, saying: this is how your slave treated me, he burned with anger. Potiphar's anger — without investigation, without asking Joseph — is the anger of the deceived husband who trusts his wife's account. The application: anger at a perceived injustice without investigation is the response that injustice most depends on to do its work.
