1 Tim 3:1-7 ?

The 'snare of the fowler' from which God delivers feeds the imagery of 'the snare of the devil' into which the disreputable overseer may fall. Faint; 'snare' is a common metaphor shared with Proverbs 29:25.

Low confidence
2 Tim 2:22-26 ?

Recovering 'out of the devil's snare' having been 'taken captive' echoes deliverance from the snare of the fowler. The trap-and-rescue imagery supplies the OT coloring for the diabolical snare.

Low confidence
2 Tim 4:14-18 ?

The promise that the Lord 'will deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me' echoes the psalm of protection, where God delivers from the snare and preserves the one who trusts him. The confidence of comprehensive deliverance and preservation has a psalmic protective texture.
