What does it mean that Jesus bruises the serpent's head?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus bruising the serpent's head signifies His ultimate victory over Satan and sin, ensuring deliverance for believers.

The phrase ‘He shall bruise your head’ from Genesis 3:15 signifies that Jesus, through His life, death, and resurrection, has decisively defeated Satan and his hold over humanity. This victory is comprehensive, sealing the fate of the enemy while securing salvation and freedom for all who trust in Christ. This dual action of bruising Satan's head while He is bruised on the heel typifies the suffering of Christ, yet underscores His triumph. It establishes Jesus as the definitive conqueror, providing hope and assurance to believers that their enemy has been defeated, and they have a secure refuge in Him.
