It is quite interesting as God starts off by saying that there will be emnity between the serpant and the woman. the crushing of the head and the striking of the heel is related to the conquest of God over Satan this is mentioned in Romans 16:20. If you have any doubt that the snake is Satan (as it is not explicitly said in the passage) he is referred to as the sepent in Rev 12:9. Satan would come against mankind as a whole but God would crush him completely and finally on the day of judgement when he would be thrown into the great firery pit. In Matthew 1 and Luke 3:23-37 the geneology of Jesus is described and we see that Jesus's lineage goes back through Adam (and as we know Eve was taken from Adams rib, so effectively born from Adam). So when it says "HE will crush your head and you will strike HIS heels" God is referring to Jesus.

This phrase comes from Genesis 3:15 in The Bible and is known as the "protoevangelium," or first mention of the gospel. It prophesies the victory of Jesus over Satan, indicating that while Satan will cause some harm, Jesus will ultimately triumph over him.

What does to be head over the heels in work mean?

It refers to people in love, not at work.. thus " Ann is head over heels in love with Peter". Ann is madly in love with Peter.. her head is spinning and she is somersaulting around. "Head over heels" means "not rational." It does not mean "overwhelmed." For that meaning, we might say someone is up to their neck in work, or over their head in it.
