Quotation1
A formal citation — high verbal volume, often introduced by a saying-formula.
God's own commendation of Moses — ‘faithful in all my house’ — is woven in twice (vv. 2, 5) and then turned on its pivot: Moses faithful as a servant in the house, Christ faithful as a Son over it. The whole Moses/Christ comparison hangs on this one verse.
High confidenceEcho1
A fainter, low-volume reuse, carried by recurrence or thematic coherence.
Entrusting the deposit to 'faithful men' who can teach others recalls the OT ideal of the trustworthy servant, paradigmatically Moses who is 'faithful in all my house.' The transmission-by-faithful-stewards motif underlies Paul's chain of witnesses.
