{Were scorched} (ekaumatisth(8873)an). First aorist passive
indicative of same verb. {With great heat} (kauma mega).
Cognate accusative retained with the passive verb. Old word (from
kai(935c) to burn), in N.T. only  7:16  and here. For blaspheming
the name of God see  13:6  Jas 2:7  Ro 2:24  1Ti 6:1 . They
blamed God for the plagues. {They repented not} (ou
meteno(8873)an). This solemn negative aorist of metanoe(935c) is a
refrain like a funeral dirge ( 9:20f.  16:11 ). In  11:13  some
did repent because of the earthquake. Even deserved punishment
may harden the heart. {To give him glory} (dounai aut(9369) doxan).
Second aorist active infinitive of did(936d)i, almost result. For
the phrase see  11:13  14:7  19:7 .
