Echo2
A fainter, low-volume reuse, carried by recurrence or thematic coherence.
Jesus' antithesis 'to do good or to do harm, to save a life or to kill' mirrors the Deuteronomic covenant choice 'I have set before you life and death, good and evil.' The paired good/evil, life/death structure suggests a deliberate framing of Sabbath observance as a covenant life-or-death decision. Thematic coherence is high though no verbatim quotation.
Medium confidenceGodliness 'having the promise of the life which is now and that which is to come' draws on the Deuteronomic offer of life through covenant fidelity, 'I have set before you life and good... that you may live.' The promise-of-life motif is reframed in two-age terms.
