- Discussion between Rappleye and Andrew (summary) I find the exchange in the comments interesting, but mostly lacking in scholarly rigor (and politeness). Nonetheless, this comment exchange is often referred to, so I list it here.
- The Nahom Follies (Philip Jenkins)
- Nehem theory and Dartmouth University (RfM post by michealm)
- Mormons in Marib
- According to epigraphist and semitist Mohammed Maraqten, the root of Nehem in Yemen has nothing to do with the Hebrew NHM meaning “consoling” but more likely comes from NHMYN, “stonemason”. (h/t this comment)
