Echo2

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

Luke 1:76-80 ?

'The dawn from on high' may also evoke the 'righteous Branch' raised up for David in Jeremiah 23:5 (LXX anatole at 23:5/33:15). The Davidic-branch coherence is good but the link is mediated through Zechariah's clearer anatole usage, so it is a faint contested echo.

Low confidence
Matt 2:19-23 ?

Parallel 'righteous Branch' (tsemach) messianic-shoot prophecy reinforcing the netzer/Nazarene wordplay field behind 2:23. Faint, mediated, and overlapping Isaiah 11:1; contested.
