Both are implied by it's meaning, and hence it's irrational paradox. From one perspective, all points of time must be preceded by infinite points of time. From another perspective, the whole of time, is not preceded by a point of time. That is why it's a paradox. Both are implied.
Anyways, did you find any fault with the first argument for why time is temporal? That is argument 2. What about Argument 1?
