Thayer's Expanded Definition

καύσων, καύσωνος, ὁ;

1. burning heat of the sun: Matthew 20:12; Luke 12:55; James 1:11 (others refer all these passages to the next entry); (Isaiah 49:10; (Genesis 31:40 Alex.; cf. Judith 8:3); Sir. 18:16; Athen. 3, p. 73 b.).

2. Eurus, a very dry, hot, east wind, scorching and drying up everything; for קָדִים, Job 27:21; Hosea 12:1; ἄνεμος καύσων, Jeremiah 18:17; Ezekiel 17:10; Hosea 13:15: πνευαμ καύσων, Jonah 4:8 (cf. Hosea 12:1); (on this wind cf. Schleusner, Thesaurus ad Sept. iii., p. 297; Winers RWB (also BB. DD.) under the word ). Many suppose it to be referred to in James 1:11; yet the evils there mentioned are ascribed not to the καύσων, but to the ἥλιος.

Vocabulary of the Greek NT

This late word means ";burning heat"; in Matthew 20:12, Luke 12:55, and probably James 1:11 : cf. Genesis 31:40 and Athenaeus iii. p. 73 μελιλώτινοι στέφανοι πάνυ εὐώδεις καὶ καύσωνος ὥρᾳ ψυκτικώτατοι. In the LXX it is more frequent of a ";scorching wind,"; or ";sirocco,"; and Hort prefers this meaning in Jas I.c. In Dioscor. i. 21. 149 it is used as a medical term, ";heat in the stomach,"; and Survives in MGr = ";heat"; (see Kennedy Sources, p. 154).
