In this case it refers to a future descendant of Eve who would have no 'sperm' from a human father. Biologically, a woman produces NO 'seed' (sperm) so this promised 'seed' would therefore would have to be miraculously implanted in the woman. In this way He would NOT inherit the sin nature would disqualify EVERY son of Adam (male sperm) from becoming a Savior from sin. This prophecy clearly anticipates the Messiaic birth MUST be from a Virgin.
