Contextual Overview
23And the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 24"Son of man, say to her, 'In the day of indignation, you are a land that has not been cleansed, upon which no rain has fallen.' 25The conspiracy of the princes in her midst is like a roaring lion tearing its prey. They devour the people, seize the treasures and precious things, and multiply the widows within her. 26Her priests do violence to My law and profane My holy things. They make no distinction between the holy and the common, and they fail to distinguish between the clean and the unclean. They disregard My Sabbaths, so that I am profaned among them. 27Her officials within her are like wolves tearing their prey, shedding blood, and destroying lives for dishonest gain. 28Her prophets whitewash these deeds by false visions and lying divinations, saying, 'This is what the Lord GOD says,' when the LORD has not spoken. 29The people of the land have practiced extortion and committed robbery. They have oppressed the poor and needy, and exploited the foreign resident without justice. 30I searched for a man among them to repair the wall and stand in the gap before Me on behalf of the land, so that I should not destroy it. But I found no one. 31So I have poured out My indignation upon them and consumed them with the fire of My fury. I have brought their ways down upon their own heads, declares the Lord GOD."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Therefore have I poured out mine indignation upon them,.... Like a mighty torrent, carrying all before it:
I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath; by the sword, famine, pestilence, and captivity:
their own way have I recompensed on their heads, saith the Lord; brought just punishment upon them, such as their ways and works deserved;
"the vengeance of their way,''
as the Targum.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The sixth word of judgment. The special sins of princes, priests, and people.
Ezekiel 22:26
Violated - Better as in margin; to offer âviolenceâ to the Law is to misinterpret it. It was the special office of the priests to keep up the distinction between âholyâ and âunholy,â âcleanâ and âuncleanâ Leviticus 10:10.
Ezekiel 22:28
See the marginal reference note.
Ezekiel 22:30
The land might be said to perish for the lack of such interpositions as saved their forefathers when Moses âstood in the gap.â This was a proof of the general corruption, that there was not in the city sufficient righteousness to save it from utter destruction. Prince, prophet, priest, all fail.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 22:31. Therefore — Because of the profligacies already mentioned; because of the false worship so generally practiced; because of the false prophets tolerated; because of the unholy and profane priesthood; because of the oppressive princes; because of the unfaithful and deceiving prophets; because of the oppressions of petty officers; and because of the total corruption of manners in all ranks, places, offices, c. -
Have I poured out mine indignation-consumed them with the fire of my wrath — Considering the above, has there not been sufficient reason why I should abandon such a people, and pour out upon them such a destructive storm of calamities?
