If you try to limit this to only one child that means there was a one child policy in place in the OT and we know that wasn't the case.

No I am not Clearly I am saying that the first born is the one to open the womb. These are Gods word from Exodus. It doesn't limit anyone to one child or does it demand further children. It says exactly what it says. The first born is the one to open the womb. Nothing more nothing less.

You also failed to address as to whether Jesus will reign after His enemies are at His feet or how Many children Michael had after her death.
One issue at a time.
It is part of the issue, not a separate issue. It shows clearly that the word until/ till does not require a change of state or condition. Jesus will rule after His enemies are at His feet, and Michael had not children after he death. It shows that a change of state or condition is not required.
Are you ignoring or discounting it because it serves to nullify your position?

"It says exactly what it says."

Which should please the, "we don't interpret, we read what's there" crowd no end but of course, it doesn't.

Instead, it's one of the hundreds of exceptions to the "we read" rule just as, "obey your prelates", "This is my body", and a large number of other things are on the massive list of exceptions such folks have.

Basically, such folk pick what best suits their Self and Self Alone, pretend context doesn't matter or that Christ Himself just misspoke, then everything else is an exception or something totally ignored if not thrown in the garbage can.

Sad, like watching a fish washed up on rocks flopping around as it dies kinda sad.
