Context: The Greek noun καῦμα appears in the New Testament in contexts that emphasize the severity and intensity of heat, often as a metaphor for divine judgment or trials. In Revelation 7:16, it is used to describe the protection of the redeemed from the scorching heat: "Never again will they hunger, and never will they thirst; nor will the sun beat down upon them, nor any scorching heat." This passage highlights the eschatological promise of relief and protection for the faithful, contrasting the harsh conditions of earthly life with the blessings of the eternal state.
