inSPIRation

2 Tim 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God ...

Does "inspiration" mean "God breathed" as the scholars insist - or is it connected with the Spirit (inSPIRation/SPIRit) making His words KNOWN to us?

Job 32:8 ... the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding.

Prov 1:23 ... I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.

1 Cor 12:8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;


When comparing spiritual words (scripture) with spiritual words (1 Cor 12:8), it looks like inspiration has to do with God making His word known to his people. That said, which group of people KNOW they have God's word and which are trying to perpetually piece it together with mss and scraps and never know it for certain?
