An eclipse is merely a shadow cast across the earth, by the moon getting between us and the sun.
As the earth spins underneath this shadow, the shadow appears to travel across the earth. The shadow is relatively small and only covers a small patch, underneath which will give a total eclipse.
So as the earth spins this will limit the time that any one place, under the path, will have an eclipse.
