Genesis 3:14-16 “The Coming of the Crusher”

This week, Roger looked at the promise of a seed of the woman who would crush the head of the serpent. In the worst chapter in human history, there is a promise of salvation from God.

Genesis 3:14-16 (ESV)

14 The Lord God said to the serpent,

“Because you have done this,
    cursed are you above all livestock
    and above all beasts of the field;
on your belly you shall go,
    and dust you shall eat
    all the days of your life.
15 I will put enmity between you and the woman,
    and between your offspring[a] and her offspring;
he shall bruise your head,
    and you shall bruise his heel.”

16 To the woman he said,

“I will surely multiply your pain in childbearing;
    in pain you shall bring forth children.
Your desire shall be contrary to[b] your husband,
    but he shall rule over you.”
