To understand the scripture found at Genesis 3:15, there has to be an identification of the players mentioned. Genesis 3:15 says, "And I will put enmity between you and the woman and between your offspring and her offspring. He will crush your head and you will strike him in the heel."
Satan the Devil was who God was speaking to, hence the "you" mentioned is Satan. The "woman" is revealed as God's heavenly organization of spirit creatures.
Satan would have "offspring" or those opposed to God's spirit directed organization on earth. The offspring of the woman would include Jesus Christ and his loyal followers. Jesus would give a death dealing blow to Satan and his followers by removing them permanently or "crushing his head." Satan would essentially "strike" Jesus in the heel, killing Jesus, but only to have God resurrect him three days later and give him immortality.

What does strike his heel mean?
This comes from Genesis 3:15 ...it shalt bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.This means that Satan will have power to tempt man but man will also have the power to withstand Satan's temptations.Further Comment:Genesis 3:15 (King James Version)15And 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. This passage has also been taken by many Bible interpreters in its context to be the first reference to Jesus Christ who would be the one 'seed of the woman' who would 'bruise Satan's head -a reference to the final and fatal blow (a bruise on the heel not normally being fatal) to be dealt on Satan and his kingdom by Jesus' suffering and death. The 'it' of course referring to the ultimate seed of the woman, Jesus Christ, who would do the bruising by His redeeming work.The enmity between two different 'seeds' refers to the constant enmity which occurs between those who are true children of God and those who hate them and will do all they can to resist the truth which the God-believers would proclaim.
