Where in the New Testament is the coming of the seed of the woman again referenced?

The coming of the seed of the woman is referenced again in Matthew chapter 1, which traces the fulfillment of the promise, and in Galatians, where the seed is identified as Christ. These passages show the promised offspring who would bruise the serpent's head.

Les explains that the first promise concerning Christ in the flesh is the seed of the woman, who would bruise the serpent's head. He notes that the New Testament references this again in Matthew chapter 1, which gives another reference to the same fulfillment of the coming of the seed of the woman, which is Christ. Les also points out that Galatians explains the seed of the woman is Christ. The cross is where Christ bruised and defeated Satan, while the serpent caused the suffering of the cross and bruised the Redeemer's heel.
