A fainter, low-volume reuse, carried by recurrence or thematic coherence.
'How you will groan when pangs come upon you, pain as of a woman in labor' applies the birth-pang figure specifically to Jerusalem/Judah's coming judgment, the very referent of Mark 13. The recurrence of the labor metaphor across the prophets for the city's doom supports its presence here.
Medium confidenceThe 'birth pains' metaphor for the onset of judgment is a recurring Jeremianic figure (also Jer 4:31; 6:24; 13:21), reinforcing 'beginning of birth pains' as prophetic shorthand for the throes preceding the end.
