Where this passage surfaces again, sorted by the strength of the link. Each kind of reuse — formal quotation, deliberate allusion, faint echo, figural pattern — carries its own mark. Follow any reference to read it in place.

Allusion1

A deliberate verbal borrowing without a citation formula.

Matt 11:20-24

'brought down to Sheol' is the direct verbal pattern behind 'go down to Hades'; the proud-exaltation-then-abasement form is borrowed wholesale.

High confidence

Echo1

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

Rev 20:1–3 ?

The rebel power 'brought down to Sheol, to the sides of the pit' — the casting-down-into-the-pit of a deceiving heavenly power resonates with casting Satan into the abyss.
