What does the 'seed' represent in relation to Jesus?

Answered in 1 source

The 'seed' represents Jesus and His work of salvation, illustrating the principle of dying to bring forth eternal life.

In the sermon, the 'seed' serves as a powerful metaphor for Jesus' death and its redemptive effects. When He says, 'except a corn of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it abides alone,' it signifies that His death is necessary for the life of many—bringing forth fruit in the lives of believers. This is echoed throughout Scripture, where Jesus is recognized as the one seed through which God's covenant promises, including salvation and eternal life, are fulfilled. His identity as the seed emphasizes the importance of His death in providing everlasting life to His people.
