How do we know Jesus is the seed of Abraham?

Answered in 1 source

The New Testament confirms that Jesus is the singular seed of Abraham through whom all nations are blessed.

In Galatians 3:16, Paul clarifies that the promises made to Abraham were specifically regarding his seed, and that seed is Christ. This means that Jesus is the fulfillment of God's promise to Abraham, which stated that in his seed, all nations would be blessed. This is further substantiated by the promise given to Abraham that his descendants would be as numerous as the stars and that this blessing would come through Christ, the ultimate Seed. Christ not only fulfills these promises but also embodies the hope for believers from every nation, kindred, tribe, and tongue.
