The source

Yahweh spoke these words to all your assembly on the mountain out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice. He added no more. He wrote them on two stone tablets, and gave them to me.

Echo2

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

2 Cor 3:1-3 ?

Deuteronomy 5:22 recalls the Decalogue 'written... in two tables of stone' delivered at Horeb, part of the broad stone-tablet tradition behind Paul's antithesis. Lower volume than the Exodus passages, so a faint corroborating echo.

Low confidence
Matt 7:28-29 ?

The people's awe at the words spoken from Sinai parallels the multitudes 'astonished at his teaching' on the mountain.
