How do we know that Christ is the promised seed in the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

The genealogy in Matthew 1 connects Christ to Judah, confirming Him as the promised seed foretold in the Old Testament.

The certainty of Christ as the promised seed is established through His genealogy, as outlined in Matthew 1, which traces His lineage back to Judah. This connection is crucial as it fulfills God's covenant promises made to Abraham and his descendants. The appearance of Tamar in this genealogy points to God's ability to work through brokenness and sin to bring forth His purposes. As the narrative unfolds from Genesis to Revelation, we see multiple foreshadowings and types that point to the coming Redeemer, evidencing God's meticulous plan to reconcile humanity through His Son, as highlighted in Ephesians 2:12-13, where believers are reminded of their reconciled status through Christ.
