Genesis concludes with the story of Joseph. This is fitting, because Joseph's narrative shows us how God is fulfilling his promise to restore the world to a place of blessing. In particular, Joseph's story shows us God's answer to the world's biggest problems. In this story, we see a heartbreaking "God-has-left-the-building" moment. But beneath the evil, we see the amazing, and counter-intuitive, way that God works to overcome evil and restore the world.
