In the Old Testament linage is under the male line, but here it talks about "her offspring". We take this to mean the seed of Mary (Christ), Mary being the Woman, and Christ's victory over Satan (the Serpent).
Perhaps this theologian also doesn't believe in hell either? And not far behind, a dismissal of the problem of Sin too?
Reminds me of the late, great comedian Flip Wilson's "Church of What's Happening Now". So-called clergy and denominations these days seem to believe that THEY know better. I think they may be in for a shock.

This could also use a Lutheran ping—even though the Church of Sweden, ostensibly “Lutheran,” is hardly Lutheran in its doctrine and practice.
It is ironic that this group both reveres Mary and generally reduces women to the status of property and chattel.
