I am so excited to introduce you to the latest Scripture Notes feature. Meet Daniel, the Scripture Notes AI research assistant. Daniel is available by every verse and paragraph in the Scripture Notes library to help you find context and meaning for what you are studying. This is only the very beginning stages of what this new research assistant will be able to do, so please try it out and put it to work for you.
Watch this brief demo video to see how to use it:

Exciting times!
I’m worried that some of AI is helpful, but other information seems like a high priest group feel good lesson, with lots of words and no substance or opinion only.
Thanks for asking about that Norman. Here’s my thoughts on it:
1) AI doesn’t replace searching the scriptures (which Scripture Notes excels at), so we should still be digging for ourselves.
2) The purpose of the AI is to assist you in finding connections or asking odd questions and having it bring out things you might not have thought about. For example, last week I read a verse in Mosiah on the “bands of death.” I thought I would ask “AI Daniel” what that meant and the first part of the reply was, “The phrase ‘the bands of death’ refers to the constraints or limitations imposed by physical death, which prevent the soul from continuing to progress in the absence of the body.” That is not something I had considered before and I found that appealing to my mind.
3) On non-canon texts like the Books of Enoch or Jasher, they are probably new to you and having the AI give you context for the verse/chapter and connections back to canonized scripture can be very helpful.
4) The AI is brand new and will get better.
Tell me about the book of Enoch. Where did it come from?
Hi Shannon, the Scripture Notes library contains the 3 books of Enoch that have been discovered. You can read a more complete history of it online in places like Wikipedia, but since you asked the question on this AI article page, I thought I would ask “Daniel,” the AI in Scripture Notes, your question. I changed “book” to “books” because there are 3. Here was the response.
Daniel: “The Books of Enoch are ancient Jewish texts attributed to Enoch, the great-grandfather of Noah. These writings are considered pseudepigraphal since they are attributed to Enoch but were likely written by various authors over several centuries. The most well-known among these texts are 1 Enoch (or the Ethiopic Book of Enoch), 2 Enoch (the Slavonic Book of Enoch), and 3 Enoch (the Hebrew Book of Enoch). Here’s a brief overview of each:
2 Enoch (Slavonic Book of Enoch): Found in Slavic translations, this text was probably written in the 1st century CE. It describes Enoch’s journey through the heavens, providing detailed accounts of the ten heavens, including the functions and descriptions of angels. This book emphasizes more on mysticism and less on eschatology.
3 Enoch (Hebrew Book of Enoch): Written in the 5th to 6th century CE, in Hebrew, this text describes the transformation of Enoch into the angel Metatron. This book is more mystical and focuses on themes like angelology and theosophy.
These books, while not considered canonical in the Bible used by mainstream Judaism and most Christian denominations, have been influential in the development of Jewish mystical traditions, including Kabbalah. In the Christian tradition, the Ethiopian Orthodox Church considers 1 Enoch as part of its biblical canon.
In studying these texts, they provide insight into ancient Jewish religious thought and the development of apocalyptic and mystical traditions that influenced later Jewish and Christian writings.
For members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, though these books are not considered canonical, they can offer valuable cultural and theological context for biblical events and prophecies.
Please always check my answers. I am a young A.I. and might make mistakes.”
the image above, showing ‘all knowing cosmic Daniel’ is quite disturbing. seems to say he is holy and should be worshipped.
maybe we should just read the scriptures for ourselves without a secondary intermediate cosmic “being”
Well AI certainly shouldn’t be worshiped, but it’s a pretty awesome research help. Want instant context for what you’re reading? Links to other verses in apocryphal texts teaching a similar concept? It’s an amazing help.
This is very informative if you want to say. Not only can you retranslate it from old Hebrew and to Google translation as far as the book of Daniel. It gives you a new look into what was really happening. Now using AI you can find the numbers and dates. For example 927 no longer says the population of desolation but it says the melting of the bride and the betrothed. And also goes into the 70 weeks which is technically for 483 which is the completion which is the 70 weeks but if you take that into the Ethiopian calendar app date converter. We are near 2024 which is the 8th year but if you put and 2032 7th year it goes back to 2024. Not only does it show that it shows you that 70 week cycle and that would be a fulfillment of The Maccabees. But you also see on that calendar where Daniel was standing at the river it says the second month the second month according to that calendar is November 1 1 and you also see that Emmanuel’s day is November 7th. Is the Lord’s Day. And if you go and read in Genesis Noah according to King James Bible 1611 you can see the day when he landed matches up to that. He landed on the same day as Daniel was standing at the riverbed everybody else ran away. I left Daniel standing. The dates match up perfectly.
