Besides Hummel's article in JBL (1957), I was wondering if anyone else has 
read or knows of other material that argues for the validity of Second Isaiah 
based upon its lack of enclitic mems? Hummel lists twenty-four enclitic mems 
for First Isaiah:
 
1.6, 3.12, 3.13, 5.23, 9.18, 10.1, 10.2, 10.5, 11.15, 17.9, 17.13, 19.4, 
19.9, 19.12, 24.18, 24.22, 25.2, 28.1, 28.9, 29.4, 30.27, 33.2, 33.21, 33.23; 

five for Second Isaiah: 
40.17, 47.14, 53.3, 62.10 (?), 65.20

Personally, I find this to be the most persuasive argument in favor of 
Deutero-Isaiah. What are your thoughts? Does anyone know of more recent work 
on enclitic mems?

Best, 

Robby Martin
