He was the father of Asenath, who was given to Joseph as his wife by Pharaoh, (41:45) and who bore Joseph two sons: Manasseh and Ephraim.
His name means "he whom Ra has given".
Theories
It was suggested that Potipherah was a prince, not only a priest, and that he may be the same person as Potiphar.
If this is true, then the wife of Potipherah was in love with Joseph, as it is said for Potiphar's wife.
