Allusion2

A deliberate verbal borrowing without a citation formula.

Mark 13:1-2

The threat to do to 'this house which is called by my name' as was done to Shiloh undergirds the prediction that the great buildings will fall. Mark elsewhere quotes Jeremiah 7:11 ('den of robbers') at the temple cleansing, establishing recurrence of this chapter in the temple-confrontation narrative.

Medium confidence
Matt 24:1-3

Jeremiah's temple sermon threatens to do to the Jerusalem house what was done to Shiloh; Jesus' prediction of the temple's total demolition stands in this prophetic tradition of judgment on a temple presumed inviolable.

Medium confidence

Echo1

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

Acts 6:8-15

'I will do to the house that is called by my name... as I did to Shiloh' — Jeremiah's temple sermon announcing the sanctuary's destruction. The accusation that Stephen said Jesus 'will destroy this holy place' echoes this prophetic threat against the temple, situating Stephen among prophets who relativized the sanctuary's permanence.
