To transform into or make like a seraph (a type of angel); to give an angelic or divine quality to.
From en- + seraph (from Hebrew שָׂרָף saraph, meaning burning one, referring to a high-ranking angel). The verb form suggests elevating something to angelic status or divine nature.
Medieval theologians used this word in religious texts to describe spiritual transformation—when something becomes 'enseraph-ed,' it's as if it's touched by divine fire, connecting to the original Hebrew meaning of seraph as 'the burning ones.'
