May 28, 2018 at 7:20 comment added kutschkem @pterandon That wikipedia article you linked says a common interpretation is that Christ is referred to in this passage by "her offspring", not by "emnity". Although I wonder why we argue here in the comment thread, as that is at least an interesting take on the scripture?! Maybe you can find another source for the connection?

May 5, 2013 at 19:59 comment added pterandon The Wikipedia article on the passage confirms that this is a common Christian interpretation of the passage. Christ isn't mere or catch-all enmity, but enmity between sepent's seed and woman's seed. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seed_of_the_woman
May 5, 2013 at 16:33 comment added Dan Esparza I think you need to look up the definition of 'enmity'. How in the world did you conclude that was a substitution for Jesus?
