Allusion2

A deliberate verbal borrowing without a citation formula.

Rev 17:7–11

The fourth beast 'slain and its body destroyed and given to the burning flame' — direct source for the beast that 'goes into destruction' (twice in this unit). Hays: thematic coherence (beast's appointed destruction), distinctiveness.

High confidence
Rev 19:17-21

'the beast was killed, and its body destroyed and given over to be burned with fire' - direct source of the beast taken and cast into the lake of fire (Rev 19:20). Danielic fourth-beast destruction; verbal + structural coherence high.

High confidence

Echo1

A fainter, low-volume reuse, carried by recurrence or thematic coherence.

Rev 15:2-4

'Sea of glass mixed with fire' and victory over the beast pair with Daniel 7's beast judged and given to the burning fire; the 'beast' the victors overcame is the Danielic/Rev-13 beast. Conceptual link to the chapter's beast theme.
