Descriptions of Jesus Christ in the Bible; Verses and scriptures about Him

The bruising of the head of the serpent occurred when Jesus Christ resurrected from the dead and took the keys of Hades and Death from the ruler of the kingdom of darkness.

“I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death.”

“And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, ‘All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth.’”

And also Hebrews 1:8-9
