Ibn Ezra on Numbers 11:13/אבן עזרא על במדבר י״א:י״ג
אמאין. במ"ם שם מקום ובלא מ"ם כמו לא ונמצא מלת הן אתם מאין:
1WHENCE.58. When the word ayin has a mem prefixed to it,59 it means from which place. When ayin appears without a mem prefixed to it, it means no.60 We also find the following clause, Behold, ye are nothing (me-ayin) (Is. 41:24).61 has the meaning of nothing even though it has a mem prefixed to it.
