Part 1. The Christos is seed of the woman. Why seed of the woman? Isn’t her “seed,” the seed also of Adam? At this point we want to solicit your understanding. Biblically all humans came from one.
Since the time of its writing, the Bible can potentially be the most controversial book in the history of mankind. Why? Because it speaks of things uncommon to man and is not easily understood. History and present-day realities prove this. Rightfully, as it deserves, the Bible became the best seller book of all time, the first book to be translated into almost all known languages of men, a bastion to those who believe, but an irritant to its enemies like the atheists, and at times to the very people who use it for their personal gains!
For me, the Bible is my sole guide in determining what is true or false, good or evil, fact or fiction, and the reality of the unseen. Let me prove my point.
WHY SEED OF THE WOMAN? CAN IT NOT BE POSSIBLE THAT THE SEED OF THE WOMAN IS ALSO THE SEED OF ADAM?
From Adam To Jesus, The Christ, Many Generations Passed.
To start only from Abraham to Jesus is forty two generations.
MATTHEW 1:17
So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations.
From Christ to this present generation nobody knows now the number of generations that intervened. If any curious or investigative mind will trace it back from our present generation, it will be very hard if not impossible to determine from whose loins came the "seed" or the Lord Jesus Christ! The fact is that even the very people from whom He came did not want to recognize Him!
JOHN 1:11
He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
But to satisfy the investigative mind and the doubtful, suffice it to say that the Bible records it as the "seed" of the woman. This is wonderfully scientific! To be fair, below is an excerpt from an article, and as all researches are, it is subject to challenge. But the emphasis is a confirmation of a new study finding of Eve, being the mother of all.

Another possibility is that while it is possible for Eve to be the mother of all living, ....
GENESIS 3:20
And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.
.... Adam on the other hand cannot be called the Father of all living. This would inevitably be denied when the Lord Jesus Christ lived in the likeness of man on earth.
PHILIPPIANS 2:7
But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
MATTHEW 1:18-20
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.
19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily.
20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife; for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.
Christ, therefore, is not the "seed" of Adam but the "seed" of the woman!
Why does present-day reality tell us that not all men have the same blood? Let me lay on the table of controversy not only scientific but spiritual truth. The Bible tells us that only God is immutable
JAMES 1:17
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
The word translated variableness in Greek is parallagē which means transmutation! There is no parallagē in the Father of lights; there is no change in Him! He is the only person in the universe that has not changed from eternity. The Bible says so.
PSALMS 90:2
Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.
HEBREWS 1:10-12
10 And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands:
11 They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment;
12 And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.
Mutation can take place in every living thing. For example, our present rice varieties are products of change and mutations over the past 45 million years. (Ref: http://www.redorbit.com/education/science/facts)
Mutation is very much possible to happen with our blood - one of the most active things on earth that have life. Here’s an account about blood types changing.
In 1900 the Austrian physician Karl Landsteiner first discovered blood types, winning the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his research in 1930. Since then scientists have developed ever more powerful tools for probing the biology of blood types. They’ve found some intriguing clues about them – tracing their deep ancestry, for example, and detecting influences of blood types on our health. And yet I found that in many ways blood types remain strangely mysterious. Scientists have yet to come up with a good explanation for their very existence.
“Isn’t it amazing?” says Ajit Varki, a biologist at the University of California, San Diego. “Almost a hundred years after the Nobel Prize was awarded for this discovery, we still don’t know exactly what they’re for.”
...
Our blood types might be even older, but it’s hard to know how old. Scientists have yet to analyse the genes of all primates, so they can’t see how widespread our own versions are among other species. But the evidence that scientists have gathered so far already reveals a turbulent history to blood types. In some lineages mutations have shut down one blood type or another.Chimpanzees, our closest living relatives, have only type A and type O blood. Gorillas, on the other hand, have only B. In some cases mutations have altered the ABO gene, turning type A blood into type B. And even in humans, scientists are finding, mutations have repeatedly arisen that prevent the ABO protein from building a second storey on the blood type house. These mutations have turned blood types from A or B to O. “There are hundreds of ways of being type O,” says Westhoff.

Setting aside mutation and considering what is called in science as universal donor, type O blood, the Bible speaks of definite scientific truth: God “hath made on one blood all nations of men"!
THE ACTS 17:26
And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;
More to come, God willing.
