Brown-Driver-Briggs Expanded Definition

סַנְוֵרִים noun [masculine]

plural intensive or

abstract (Sta^{§ 324 b}) sudden blindness (etymology dubious; derivation from נוּר highly improbable, whether antiphrase Wetzst^{De Psalm 4,886} Kö^{ii. 1,404}, or from dazzling, compare 'flimmern' Hoffm^{ZAW ii (1882), 68}; but also view of Hal^{RŠJ xi. 66 derivatives} from √ סנר cover with a skin, i.e. produce film over, lacks demonstration; at present we must be content with assuming quadriliteral √, Thes Sta^{§ 243}); — ׳הִכּוּ בַּסּ Genesis 19:11 (J) they smote the men with sudden blindness, compare 2 Kings 6:18; 2 Kings 2:18 (all cases miraculous, and in Kings temporary).

Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

סַנְוֵרִים m. pl. blindness, Genesis 19:11; 2 Kings 6:18.
