Was Joseph wrong to marry the daughter of a pagan priest?

Was Joseph wrong to marry the daughter of a pagan priest (Genesis 41:45)?

The text makes no judgment about this marriage. In the context of Genesis 41, Joseph’s marriage appears positive, underscoring the power and prestige Joseph had gained in Egypt. The marriage was apparently another blessing from God, along with all the other good things happening to him.
