You all had some helpful comments that didn't wind up here for some reason. I find his brief treatment of time confusing and unhelpful. Until we transition to eternity, we are in unfolding time. That is our reality. Our memories and plans/intentions don't have the same concrete reality as our now.
Jesus becoming subject to time, living one moment after another, is an aspect of the Incarnation I hadn't considered before.
