It conveys the idea of suffering or being affected by extreme heat, often in a metaphorical sense to describe spiritual or physical affliction.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Near Eastern context, intense heat was a common and powerful force, often associated with the sun's scorching rays. This imagery was familiar to the original audience, who lived in a climate where the sun's heat could be both life-giving and destructive. The concept of being scorched by heat was used metaphorically in biblical literature to describe divine judgment or severe trials.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/2738.htm">kauma</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to burn up<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>scorch (1), scorched (3).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 2739: καυματίζω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">καυματίζω</span></span>: 1 aorist infinitive <span class="greek2">καυματίσαι</span>; 1 aorist passive <span class="greek2">ἐκαυματίσθην</span>; (<span class="greek2">καῦμα</span>); <span class="accented">to burn with heat, to scorch</span>: <span class="greek2">τινα</span>, with <span class="greek2">ἐν</span> <span class="greek2">πυρί</span> added, <a href="/interlinear/revelation/16-8.htm">Revelation 16:8</a>; passive, <a href="/interlinear/matthew/13-6.htm">Matthew 13:6</a>; <a href="/interlinear/mark/4-6.htm">Mark 4:6</a>; with addition of <span class="greek2">καῦμα</span> <span class="greek2">μέγα</span> (see <span class="greek2"><span class="lexref">ἀγαπάω</span></span> under the end for examples and references), to be tortured with intense heat, <a href="/interlinear/revelation/16-9.htm">Revelation 16:9</a>.
