Explained connections
- The serpent's head crushed
Right after the fall, God promises that the woman's offspring will bruise the serpent's head while being wounded in the heel — often called the first gospel promise. Paul echoes the image when he assures believers that God will soon crush Satan under their feet, treating the victory as shared by Christ's people.
