These words bring to mind Genesis 3:15 when God said the Seed
would crush the head of the serpent.
The first inference would be Christ Jesus crushing the head
of the serpent by the Cross.
The first mention of Moab was in Genesis 19:37. He was the
incestuous offspring of Noah and his firstborn daughter (Genesis 19:30-38).
Moab means “from father” or “the seed of the father”.
The miraculous birth of Jesus was viewed as that born out of
wedlock, along the same lines of Moab.
Yet Jesus was from the Seed of God the Father. On this basis, I am of
the view that Moab was a type of the Virgin birth in that Jesus came from the
Seed of God the Father.
Moab
was a type of the Virgin birth. This is another
typology.
Growing up, Jesus was most probably labeled an illegitimate
child born out of wedlock. That would imply that His earthly mother was
promiscuous and the father was made a cuckold! This opinion is based on the footnote to Mark 6:3 of the
Amplified Bible.
In Isaiah 53:10, we see that it was God’s will to crush Jesus
and Jesus Himself said that He came to do the will of His Father (John 6:38; John
8:29).
The will of God was to make Jesus the ultimate sacrifice for
sin (Hebrews 10:5-10).
By Christ crucified, the head of the serpent was crushed,
signifying his complete and permanent defeat.
This brings us back to the beginning when God said:
We are talking about the extent
of damages here.
A bruised head carries the image of fatal and complete
destruction while a bruised heel paints a picture of temporal damages.
