Echo2
A fainter, low-volume reuse, carried by recurrence or thematic coherence.
The double descriptor 'righteous... blameless' matches the verdict on Noah, who was 'a righteous man, blameless' and 'walked with God' (Genesis 6:9). Septuagintal vocabulary (dikaios, amemptos) recurs; the echo enrolls Zechariah and Elizabeth among Scripture's exemplary righteous.
Medium confidenceJoseph being called 'a righteous man' (dikaios, v.19) places him in the OT line of the righteous (Noah 'a righteous man'; Job). Faint characterizing echo of the biblical 'tsaddiq' ideal; low volume, no specific borrowing.
