Where is the Savior mentioned in the Book of Genesis?

There is no mention of any saviour in the Book of Genesis nor, more specifically, is there any mention of Jesus.Some people find obscure passages that they claim to mention Jesus. One such is Genesis 3:15, which supposeldy sees Jesus as the one to bruise the head of the serpent, but could just as easily be about the army that overthrew Adolf Hitler (the serpent's head) and Mussolini (the serpent's tail): "And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel." Of course, Genesis 3:15 is not about Hitler and Mussolini any more than it is about Jesus, but this example shows how easy it is to 'find' whatever you want in the scriptures.
