DESOLATION OF NEHORS

Lehite GN		City/land formerly known as AMMONIHAH, which had been destroyed
                        by the LAMANITES, ca. 78 BC (Alma 16:11), and noted for the sect of        
                        NEHORS.

No reconstruction of a Vorlage for DESOLATION is suggested. NEHORS is a plural genitive construct of a PN. Similar genitive constructs with NEHOR, but not in the 
plural, appear in Alma 14:16 & 18; 15:15; 16:11; and 24:29. On the PN see NEHOR below.

See Book of Mormon NEHOR and cf. Book of Mormon DESOLATION.
