"And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel."
Does it mean something that God says there will be enmity between the serpent and the woman, but leaves out "man"?
Also, "between thy seed" is worrisome. If the serpent is supposed to represent the devil (correct?) then this suggests that the devil can have children, can create other "devils". How is this typically interpreted?
