So you would hold that the following is not a messianic passage?

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. (Genesis 3:15, KJV)

It is messianic but seed has many different meanings as we are seeing father has many different meanings. Some here are questioning whether Joseph was Jesus's father when that's what Mary calls him. Father has many meanings and so does seed. Here seed simply means human. Otherwise, what is the serpents seed? I guarantee that no sperm from that serpent has become any demons.

First:

Mat:125 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.

Any normal reading of this shows that they had sex after Jesus was born.

Then:

Mal:So you would hold that the following is not a messianic passage?

Ah, so. Maybe one day, the wonk will learn that "till" has many different meanings as well. We can only pray.
