Translations: they were burned up together, they were consumed together, they were utterly destroyed by fire
From the root: ΦΛΕΓΩ
Part of Speech: Verb
Explanation: This is a compound verb formed from three parts: the prefix ΣΥΝ- (syn-) meaning 'with' or 'together', the prefix ΚΑΤΑ- (kata-) meaning 'down' or 'completely', and the verb ΦΛΕΓΩ (phlegō) meaning 'to burn'. Therefore, the word means 'to be burned up completely together with others'. It describes an action where multiple things are destroyed by fire simultaneously and thoroughly. It is used to indicate a shared and complete destruction by burning.
