You shall make the fiftieth year holy, and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee to you; and each of you shall return to his own property, and each of you shall return to his family.

Allusion1
A deliberate verbal borrowing without a citation formula.
'To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord' and 'release/aphesis' evoke the Jubilee of Leviticus 25, when liberty is proclaimed and debts/captives released. Isaiah 61 itself draws on Jubilee language; Luke makes the year-of-release motif programmatic, giving strong Coherence and Availability.
High confidenceEcho1
A fainter, low-volume reuse, carried by recurrence or thematic coherence.
The Jubilee proclamation of 'liberty (deror) throughout the land' may underlie Paul's stress on the freedom for which Christ liberated. Coherence is real (release from debt-servitude) but volume is faint; the verbal link runs through the LXX language of eleutheria rather than direct citation.
