It might not be well documented, but once we start to recognise the power of spirit empowered by the One True all-powerful God, it is necessary to consider that by spirit a person can influence and affect the past to meet requirements of the present in the love of God. The Christ influencing the past millennia and past centuries before His conception and birth is distinctly plausible. Possibly when His spirit was free of a body between crucifixion and resurrection He did this and there is a very real sense in which the prophets had Jesus Christ right there with them requiring them to write about Him in present tense. Even placing a hand on the shoulder in reassurance and to impart strength, as when in the time after rising from the dead Jesus stood by the side of Paul to give him strength.
