I just think that in God choosing a particular world of free will choices, those free will choices will happen and not others. But they are free will choices. Yet God also will intervene in cases as needed to accomplish certain things or to limit certain things-- for example, limiting or redirecting the evil Joseph's brothers intended to do to Joseph, so that he ended up in Egypt, and he could be a savior to the family and provide the circumstances that would fulfill the prophecy to Abraham. It was how Joseph was able to soften the evil his brothers did by saying it was not they but God who sent him there. There may be a better way to say it, but he deflected the offense from them it seems.
