Not sure I am understanding you Robby. You seem to be saying that we do not need to take our understanding from what the prophets actually said but we should believe what those who heard the prophecy thought the prophet said. That seems to say the hearers were infallible. And how would this work when the old prophets wrote things that we can read, the same as they were read long ago?No, what I find funny is that you disparage my presupposition, which conflates with the original audience's presupposition upon hearing the prophecy. You're slight against me is a charge against them. For I believe what they believed, as we all should.
Seems that we would have to believe Jesus was a false prophet because He didn't fit with what the Jew's understanding was of the prophecies about the Messiah. They had it all wrong.
