INFLAME; ENFLAME

in-flam', en-flam' (dalaq): "To inflame" in the meaning "to excite passion" is found in Isaiah 5:11, "till wine inflame them." In some the King James Version passages (e.g. Isaiah 57:5) we find "enflaming" with the same meaning; compare the King James Version Susanna verse 8 and Sirach 28:10 the King James Version (the Revised Version (British and American) "inflame").
