Where does the New Testament refer to the fulfillment of the coming of the seed of the woman?
The New Testament refers to this fulfillment in Matthew chapter 1, where it gives another reference to the coming of the seed of the woman, who is Christ. The context also notes that Galatians explains the seed of the woman is Christ, identifying Him as the promised offspring.
Les teaches that the seed of the woman promise is first given in verse 15, where God says the woman’s seed will bruise the serpent’s head while the serpent bruises his heel. Les identifies this seed as Christ, explaining that Christ bruised and defeated Satan at the cross, while the suffering of the cross was the bruising of the Redeemer’s heel. He then points to Matthew chapter 1 as another New Testament reference to the fulfillment of the coming of the seed of the woman, and notes that Galatians explains the seed of the woman is Christ. The promise began with Eve, that through the woman of the human race the Messiah would come.
