Echo2

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

2 Cor 2:14-17 ?

Paul spreads 'the knowledge of him in every place,' which resonates with the eschatological promise that 'the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD.' The universal diffusion of divine knowledge is the shared note. Low/medium: thematic, mediated through the aroma metaphor.

Low confidence
Col 1:3-8 ?

The motif of 'all the world' / earth filled (here with the fruitful word) faintly recalls Isaiah's eschatological 'the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD as the waters cover the sea,' which also surfaces in the knowledge-language of v.9-10. Low volume, flagged contested.
