Q:

In what merit did Osnas the daughter of Potiphar come to marry such a tzaddik as Joseph considering that there is no indication that she ever did anything worthwhile? And by what merit did her mother, Potiphar’s wife, come to have such grandchildren as Efraim and Menashe considering that she was at least lustful and even a pervert?

A:

Question: What was the merit of Osnas that she was wed to Yosef Hatzaddik?
And the answer is that she was able to withstand the negative influence of her home and grow up to be a virtuous person. And therefore Hakadosh Baruch Hu saw that she was similar to Yosef. Yosef was able to be omed benisayon – he withstood tests and temptations, and so did she. And therefore she was chosen as worthy of being a mate to him.
