the hedge—the wall (see on Ezekiel 13:5); image for leading the people to repentance.
the gap—the breach (Psalms 106:23); image for interceding between the people and God (Genesis 20:7; Exodus 32:11; Numbers 16:48).
I found none— (Jeremiah 5:1) —not that literally there was not a righteous man in the city. For Jeremiah, Baruch, etc., were still there; but Jeremiah had been forbidden to pray for the people (Jeremiah 11:14), as being doomed to wrath. None now, of the godly, knowing the desperate state of the people, and God's purpose as to them, was willing longer to interpose between God's wrath and them. And none "among them," that is, among those just enumerated as guilty of such sins (Ezekiel 22:25-29), was morally able for such an office.
