Notes: No strong keyword/theological matches. The parallels are semantic only (delight/praise themes in Psalms). Psalm 1:2 ("his delight is in the law of the LORD") and Psalm 119:70, 77, 92, 97, 174 ("thy law is my delight") are the conceptual OT parallels for "delighting in the law of God," but the tool picked up general praise psalms rather than the specific law-delight passages. This is likely because the tool's keyword matching did not pick up on "law" + "delight" as a compound phrase.

Notes: Keyword matches on "jerusalem" and "mose." The primary OT source text for Luke 2:22 is Leviticus 12:1-8 (purification after childbirth), which the tool did not surface. Psalm 103:7 ("He made known his ways unto Moses") and 2 Chr 24:9 (Moses reference) appeared. The tool is better at finding verbal/lexical parallels than identifying the source regulation.

Notes: Good keyword matches on "circumcise," "keep," and "mose." Genesis 17:10 (circumcision covenant) is the key OT source. Joshua 5:5 (circumcision at Gilgal) and Nehemiah 10:30 (keeping Moses' law) are relevant. The parallels correctly identify the circumcision-law-of-Moses connection that is central to Acts 15.


Psalm 19:7 -- NT Parallels

Verse not found: Psa 19:7

Notes: The parallels tool could not find this verse, likely due to versification differences (LXX Psalm numbering differs from MT). Psalm 19:7 in the MT = Psalm 19:8 in the LXX numbering used by the tool.

  [all scores below 0.27, no keyword matches]

Notes: Very weak parallels. The N1904 text for Acts 13:39 is short ("en toutō pas ho pisteuōn dikaioutai"), lacking the "law of Moses" phrase which is in v.38 in that text tradition. The tool found no meaningful OT connections. The theological parallel would be to Isaiah 53:11 ("by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many") and Habakkuk 2:4 ("the just shall live by his faith"), but these were not surfaced.

  Numeri 16:4            0.332   0.61  0.10  0.00  mose

Notes: Strong matches. Deuteronomy 17:6 (0.370) is the direct OT source: "At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is worthy of death be put to death." This is the specific "law of Moses" content referenced in Heb 10:28 -- the judicial procedure requiring multiple witnesses for capital punishment. Leviticus 16:1 also scored high due to keyword overlap (die, mose, two). The tool correctly identified the primary source text.
