Echo3
A fainter, low-volume reuse, carried by recurrence or thematic coherence.
'Tongues of angels' presupposes the OT picture of angels (here 'a little lower than the angels/elohim') as a class of glorious heavenly beings whose speech surpasses human. The motif of angelic language is developed in Second-Temple texts; the canonical seedbed is the angelic praise tradition.
Low confidencePsalm 8:5 ('crowned him with glory and honour') articulates humanity's glory, which Paul sees restored as believers go 'from glory to glory.' A faint thematic echo of the glory-of-the-image tradition; contested and low volume.
Low confidenceGlory bestowed on the disciples (v22) loosely recalls humanity 'crowned with glory and honor.' Generic glory-conferral idiom; supportive but faint and contested.
