The other explanation is that she bore the incarnation of the second person of the Trinity, which says a different thing than saying she bore the second person of the Trinity.

I think I can see the difference. When Mary gave birth to Jesus, she gave birth to only the flesh, and not the Word that was made flesh? That when Jesus died on the cross, it was only the flesh that died, and not the Word that was in the flesh?
