In the paper he says that lambda allows for the propagation time delay
of the light front with respect to the time of the field point. What
has the Lorentz force got to do with this?

Tho *Lorentz Force* isn't used in later derivations
the mechanism is described at about equation 511.

Have you read section 3?

No but the paper is interesting and seems quite thorough.
I am hoping to give it a cover to cover read soon.
Many thanks for the URL.
