God insulated the seed of the woman from the curse so that Christ, the promised Redeemer, could be born of Mary without an earthly father and without a sinful, Adamic bloodline.
Immediately after the fall, God promised in Genesis 3:15 that the Redeemer would come as the seed of the woman. Les Feldick teaches that this seed was kept insulated from the curse throughout history down to Mary. Because there was no earthly father, Mary conceived of God and gave birth to a child whose blood was divine and not tainted by an Adamic nature.
Genesis 3:15 — This is the first promise of the seed of the woman, the line through which the Redeemer would come.
Galatians 4:4 — This verse shows that God sent His Son, made of a woman, fulfilling the promised seed of the woman.
After the fall, God announced to the serpent, "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." This is where the promised line of redemption is first introduced. Paul later wrote, "But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law," showing that the Redeemer would come through a woman.
Les teaches that Genesis 3:15 is the scarlet thread of salvation running through all Scripture. The seed of the woman is the promised line that culminates in Christ. He emphasizes that this seed was kept insulated from the curse all the way down through human history to Mary. That meant there was no sin nature in the seed of the woman. Because Mary conceived by God, her Child had divine blood, not sinful blood, and no Adamic nature, since there was no earthly father.
Immediately after the fall, God told the serpent, "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." Les points out that this is where the promised coming of the seed of the woman is first voiced. He identifies that seed as Christ, and says this godly line was kept all the way through Scripture and ended with the coming of Christ the Redeemer.
Les explains that the seed of the woman was kept insulated from the curse all the way down to Mary, so she could conceive of God and still have a child whose blood was divine, not sinful. Because there was no earthly father, the Child had no Adamic nature in His blood. This is why the Redeemer had to come through the woman, not through a human father.
Paul, writing in Galatians, refers to the seed in the singular, and Les points out that this seed is the seed of the woman of Genesis 3:15, namely Christ. From Eve onward, God kept that line moving through history so that the Redeemer would finally come through Mary.
Eve Had to Be Insulated
Les begins to show that Eve's reproductive makeup was specifically insulated, connecting the promised seed of the woman to a protected line of descent.
The Seed of the Woman Kept From the Curse
Les teaches that the seed of the woman was insulated from the curse down to Mary, so that Mary could conceive of God and have a child whose blood was divine and had no Adamic nature because there was no earthly father.
Seed in the Singular
Les connects Paul's use of the singular "seed" to the seed of the woman of Genesis 3:15, showing that the seed is Christ.
Scarlet Thread of Salvation
Les calls Genesis 3:15 the scarlet thread of salvation, where the seed of the woman would crush the serpent's head.
Redeemer and Deliverance From the Curse
Les shows that God promised a Redeemer who would be the seed of the woman, and that the creation itself is to be delivered from the curse.
Seed of the Woman Is Christ
Les clearly states that the seed of the woman of Scripture is Christ, and that from Eve onward God promised the Messiah would come through the woman of the human race.
First Promise After the Fall
Les points out that God first voiced the promised coming of the seed of the woman right after Adam and Eve fell, and Galatians tells us that seed is Christ.
Godly Line to Christ
Les teaches that beginning with Eve, the godly line was kept through Scripture until it ended with the coming of Christ the Redeemer.
Genesis 3:15: 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.
This is the foundational promise of the seed of the woman, the line from which the Redeemer would come.
Galatians 4:4: But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,
This passage confirms that the promised seed of the woman was fulfilled in Christ, who was made of a woman.
The seed of the woman is the promised line of redemption first announced in Genesis 3:15. Les teaches that this seed is Christ, the Redeemer who would come through the woman and crush the serpent's head.
Les teaches that because there was no earthly father, Christ's blood was divine, not sinful, and had no Adamic nature in it. Mary conceived of God, so the Child was not tainted by an Adamic nature.
In Genesis 3:15, right after Adam and Eve fell, God promised that the seed of the woman would bruise the serpent's head. Les calls this the scarlet thread of salvation that runs all the way through Scripture.
