Genesis 39,8. “he refused, saying to his master’s wife, etc.” the tone sign shalshelet over the word וימאן signifies that Joseph raised his voice in protest and amazement at the suggestion of his master’s wife that he commit adultery with her. He expressed his disgust at such an immoral demand on her part.
