Allusion1
A deliberate verbal borrowing without a citation formula.
'Raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David' draws on Psalm 132:17, 'There I will make a horn to sprout for David.' The horn + David-my-servant combination is distinctive royal-messianic imagery; high volume.
