So how could I do such a great evil and sin against God?”Even though she continued to speak to Joseph day after day, he did not respond to her invitation to have sex with her.One day he went into the house to do his work when none of the household servants were there in the house.She grabbed him by his outer garment, saying,“ Have sex with me!” But he left his outer garment in her hand and ran outside.

Acts 24:12-21
They did not find me arguing with anyone or stirring up a crowd in the temple courts or in the synagogues or throughout the city,nor can they prove to you the things they are accusing me of doing.But I confess this to you, that I worship the God of our ancestors according to the Way( which they call a sect), believing everything that is according to the law and that is written in the prophets.I have a hope in God( a hope that these men themselves accept too) that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous.This is the reason I do my best to always have a clear conscience toward God and toward people.After several years I came to bring to my people gifts for the poor and to present offerings,which I was doing when they found me in the temple, ritually purified, without a crowd or a disturbance.But there are some Jews from the province of Asia who should be here before you and bring charges, if they have anything against me.Or these men here should tell what crime they found me guilty of when I stood before the council,other than this one thing I shouted out while I stood before them:‘ I am on trial before you today concerning the resurrection of the dead.’”
