I like how the Confession puts it:
"Our first parents, begin seduced by the subtlety and temptations of
Satan, sinned in eating the forbidden fruit. ... They being the root
of mankind, the guilt of this sin was imputed, and the same death in
sin and corrupted nature conveyed to all their posterity, descending
from them by original generation."

How about a modern murderer? Is his murderous nature conveyed to all
his posterity (his children, grandchildren, greatgrandchildren, etc)?

Each and every person descended from humankind's first parents through
normal generation starts life with a sinful nature.

I like how the commentary puts it:
"God passes sentence; and he begins where the sin began, with the
serpent. The devil's instruments must share in the devil's
punishments. Under the cover of the serpent, the devil is sentenced to
be degraded and accursed of God; detested and abhorred of all mankind:
also to be destroyed and ruined at last by the great Redeemer"
