Jesus = heal and head
We know that the bruised heal represents Jesus and that the bruised head is the serpent. So how can the one inflicting the bruise be the one receiving the bruise?
The bruising of the serpent's head is not the same instance of God's wrath as the Cross, but it is the same wrath. In both instances it is God's wrath against sin which is in view. Whenever we see God's wrath against sin and on whomever it falls, we are to learn something more of its omnipotent fury, the better to love the one who took it all that we, beholding the glory of his grace, might worship Him forever.
