Echo2
A fainter, low-volume reuse, carried by recurrence or thematic coherence.
'Son of his love' (v.13) may faintly echo Isaiah's 'song of my beloved' for the vineyard; the LXX agapetos vocabulary links beloved-son and beloved-vineyard traditions. Low volume and contested against the stronger Psalm 2 / Genesis 22 candidates.
Low confidenceIsaiah's Song 'for my beloved' (to egapemeno LXX) is one of the LXX loci where ho egapemenos functions almost titularly, a possible reservoir for Ephesians' 'in the Beloved.' Availability is genuine, but volume and thematic coherence are weak here, so the echo is marked low and contested.
