Time (in Plato & NT)?

1. Does anyone know offhand the location of Plato's statement that time is
"a moving image of eternity"?

2. I've been reading a bit in philosophical discussions of "time." I'm
interested in any defs. of "time" that you find satisfactory; either
philosophical or biblical ones. How does one *define* CRONOS and/or hWRA
(and not just gloss it as 'time')? (I'm thinking of the abstract sense
here, not a specific one such as "the third hour".)

Thanks for any ideas,

Rod
