Allusion1
A deliberate verbal borrowing without a citation formula.
'Christ will be magnified (megalynthesetai) in my body' echoes the psalmic call to magnify the LORD (LXX Ps 33:4 'megalynate ton kyrion'); Ps 34 also supplies the adjacent 'those who look to him are radiant, never put to shame.' The shared verb of magnifying and the linked shame motif give good coherence; christological transfer of God's magnification to Christ is the figural pivot.
Medium confidenceEcho1
A fainter, low-volume reuse, carried by recurrence or thematic coherence.
The outcome is that the name of the Lord Jesus is magnified; the psalmist's call to magnify the Lord and exalt his name supplies the idiom. Faint, formulaic. Contested.
