1. He didn't die from being set on fire, nor was he actually burned from it. The 'dead' parts of the body that would've burned away from the fire (hair and nails,) survived. What if he was healed by the fire, hence why he hair and nails survived. Like the Phoenix, which ressurects itself in fire.

2. The season's theme in the promos were Scott and the pack, RISING FROM THE ASHES.

3. His eyes were glowing red (which really doesn't say much, but whatever.)

1) His screams of pain seem to suggest that he was harmed by it and a phoenix actually does burn to ashes before being reborn so....guess we'll see.

2) Rising from the Ashes as a theme doesn't strike me as though it was a literal thing and applicable only to Parrish.

It could simply mean how Chris Argent was a broken and hollow man due to Allison's death but then found purpose in her memory and what she died for.

Or it could have something to do with Derek dying and then rising again, reborn as a black wolf.

Liam overcoming his beserker fear, Satomi & pack coming back from the brink of destruction, etc.

Just about every part of this season had something to do with getting back up after being tossed down or "rising from the ashes", hence why it is the THEME.

3) ? Yeah...whatever.
