Chapters 43 and 44 tell of Joseph playing with his brothers' mind do to the fact that they think he is dead.
Chapters 45 to 50 this is how the Isaelites come to Eygpt and prosper while Joseph governs under Pharaoh. And how they start to own more land then the Eygptians. Starting to create the hard feeling that would lead to Moses and the Exodus.

Gensis Chapter 39,40, 41 & 42
The Lord doesn't do any speaking in these chapter, but he does a lot of seeing.
They speak of Joseph's beginning life in Egypt, his boss's wife getting him thrown into prison and Joseph's ability to interpret dreams for both his fellow prisoners and for Pharaoh. This allowes Joseph to gain the governorship of Egypt so when there is a famine in the land of this father he is in a possition to help. His brothers come to Egypt for help and don't recognize Joseph but he recognized them.
These chapters are worth the read if just to see Gos's planning and sense of humor.
