Great verses.

Meditation in the context of those verses seems to be a more active, cerebral exercise. Putting the Lord and/or His laws before one's mind and contemplating them.

Most of what I read about modern meditation is completely anti-cerebral. The effort seems to be more about emptying one's mind.

Maybe that's the problem with modern meditation: an empty mind can be filled up with a lot of garbage.
