Ibn Ezra, on Isa 40:24

“And surely their stock was neither planted, nor sown, nor rooted in the earth: suddenly he hath blown upon them, and they are withered, and a whirlwind shall take them away as stubble.”

“Yea, they shall not be planted, etc. They shall be like trees, that perished as completely as if they had never been planted. נטעו is Niphal; זרעו is Pual; שרש is participle Kal. נשף He shall blow. Comp. נשפת thou didst blow (Ex. 15:10). וגם And besides.”
