Bible Question: I know that meditation is pondering to oneself/thinking to oneself, but if I quote scriptures out loud is that still meditation on the word? |
Bible Answer: 8788, "But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night." (Psa 1:2) "Meditate" Brown-Driver-Briggs' Hebrew Definitions: 1) to moan, growl, utter, muse, mutter, meditate, devise, plot, speak 1a) (Qal) 1a1) to roar, growl, groan 1a2) to utter, speak 1a3) to meditate, devise, muse, imagine 1b) (Poal) to utter 1c) (Hiphil) to mutter "of a deep (cf. Arab. hjj, depressum esse), dull sound, as if vibrating between within and without, here signifies the quiet soliloquy (cf. Arab. hjs, mussitando secum loqui) of one who is searching and thinking." (Keil and Delitzsch Commentary on the OT.) Meditation can get noisy. Colin |
