Eternity and Time in Porphyry’s Sentence 44
Original language description
As for Plato (Tim. 37c6-39e2) and Plotinus (Enn. III,7), time is for Porphyry an image of eternity. As in Plotinus, time depends on the soul; however, not on its life or being, but on its (self-)knowledge. While Intellect always grasps all its contents in a single act, the soul contemplates its intelligible contents one after another, shifting its intention from one to another. Time owes its existence to this interchanging actuality and latency of soul’s knowledge. From the spatial movements of corporeal things, time obtains its extension and plurality.
