Allusion1
A deliberate verbal borrowing without a citation formula.

Medium confidence'To give knowledge of salvation to his people by the remission of their sins' echoes the new covenant of Jeremiah 31:34, 'they shall all know me... I will forgive their iniquity.' The knowledge-of-God + forgiveness-of-sins pairing coheres with the covenant-fulfillment theme of the Benedictus.
