V. when the day was now far spent), Mark 6:35 (see πολύς, c.

V. for a season), John 5:35; 2 Corinthians 7:8; Galatians 2:5 (here A. V. for an hour); Philemon 1:15; πρός καιρόν ὥρας (for a short season), 1 Thessalonians 2:17.
4. any definite time, point of time, moment: Matthew 26:45; more precisely defined — by a genitive of the thing, Luke 1:10; Luke 14:17; Revelation 3:10; Revelation 14:7, 15; by a genitive of the person the fit or opportune time for one, Luke 22:53; John 2:4; by a pronoun or an adjective: ἄρτι ὥρα (A. V. this present hour), 1 Corinthians 4:11; ἐσχάτῃ ὥρα, the last hour i. e. the end of this age and very near the return of Christ from heaven (see ἔσχατος, 1, p. 253b), 1 John 2:18 (cf. Westcott at the passage); αὐτῇ τῇ ὥρα, that very hour, Luke 2:38 (here A. V. (not R.

I. 3); so the Latintempus est, Cicero, Tusc. 1, 41, 99; ad Attic 10, 8). Owing to the context ὥρα sometimes denotes the fatal hour, the hour of death: Matthew 26:45; Mark 14:35, 41; John 12:27; John 16:4 (here L Tr WH read ὥρα αὐτῶν i. e. the time when these predictions are fulfilled); John 17:1; ὥρα τίνος, 'one's hour', i. e. the time when one must undergo the destiny appointed him by God: so of Christ, John 7:30; John 8:20, cf. John 16:21. (On the omission of the word see ἐξαυτῆς (ἀφ' ἧς? cf., p. 58b top), Winers Grammar, § 64, 5, under the word; Buttmann, 82 (71); on the omission of the article with it (e. g. 1 John 2:18), see Winers Grammar, § 19, under the word).
