Allusion1

A deliberate verbal borrowing without a citation formula.

Luke 24:50-53

'God has gone up with a shout' supplies the enthronement-ascent motif of God ascending to his throne amid praise, fitting the disciples who 'worshiped him and returned... with great joy, praising God.' Luke's ascension-to-worship sequence draws on the Zion enthronement psalms. Coherence with the joyful praise response supports it.

Medium confidence

Echo1

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

1 Thess 4:13-18 ?

'God has gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet' uniquely pairs a loud shout with a trumpet blast, the precise combination in 'with a shout... and with God's trumpet.' Direction is reversed (ascent vs. descent) but the acclamation imagery is striking.
