Echo2

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

2 Tim 3:14-17 ?

God's good Spirit given to instruct his people, and the law taught for their instruction, parallels Scripture's profit 'for teaching... for instruction in righteousness.' The motif of the inspired word teaching the people of God resonates faintly.

Low confidence
John 14:25-27 ?

'You gave your good Spirit to instruct them,' a rare OT statement of the Spirit as teacher of God's people, parallels the Paraclete who 'will teach you all things.' Low confidence: genuine conceptual match for the teaching-Spirit, but verbally remote and not signaled as a source by John.
