"Andrew: The point being that Jude, most likely (see Nathan’s last comment), saw 1 Enoch 1.9 as an actual prophesy.

But we know that it wasn’t (aka, it was not inspired).

So, how does the fact that a Biblical author, who wrote while being inspired by the Spirit of God, mistakes a pseudoprophesy for an actual prophesy and quotes it in his inspired letter affect our understanding of Scripture?

In other words, does this affect our doctrine of Scripture?
"




Hmmm....what IS the relationship between true prophecy and inspiration?
