How do we know Jesus is the promised seed of the woman?

Answered in 1 source

The genealogy and prophetic fulfillment point to Jesus as the promised seed, referencing Genesis 3:15.

The identification of Jesus as the promised seed of the woman is established through a combination of biblical prophecy and genealogical evidence. Genesis 3:15 prophesies that the seed of the woman would bruise the serpent's head, an assurance of Christ's victory over sin and death. Throughout the Old Testament, various women, such as Sarah and Ruth, are connected to the lineage leading to the Messiah, emphasizing that despite being a woman, Mary fulfilled this role as the virgin mother of Christ. By the miraculous work of the Holy Spirit, Jesus was born of Mary, affirming Him as the fulfillment of God's promise spanning thousands of years, seen clearly in the New Testament accounts of His birth.
