Cross-Reference Analysis
Cross-Reference and Theme Analysis — 2 Corinthians (English → Hindi)
Methodology
This document catalogs every Old Testament quotation and identifiable allusion
in 2 Corinthians 1–13, every messianic reference and typological pattern, and
every substantive parallel to the Romans/Galatians baseline already governing
this Language Package. Each entry records: the 2 Corinthians passage, the
governing theme (mapped to doctrines D1–D8 from 08_core_glossary.md where
applicable), related biblical character(s), the specific OT/NT connection,
and a translation-sensitivity note flagging any Hindu-background collision
risk or cross-curriculum consistency requirement. Coverage spans all thirteen
chapters; chapters without a direct OT quotation are noted explicitly with
their governing allusions rather than silently omitted.
Part 1 — Direct Old Testament Quotations (in canonical order)
| # | 2 Corinthians Passage | OT Source | Theme (Doctrine) | Related Character(s) | OT/NT Connection | Translation Sensitivity |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 2 Corinthians 4:6 | Genesis 1:3 | D2 New Creation | God (Creator) | “Let there be light” applied to the new-creation light of the knowledge of God’s glory in Christ’s face; creation-language frames regeneration. | Reuse baseline सृजनहार-adjacent creation vocabulary; must not drift toward light-as-impersonal-divine-radiance (cf. baseline glory/महिमा caution against light metaphors conflating with Hindu divine-light concepts). |
| 2 | 2 Corinthians 4:13 | Psalm 116:10 (LXX Psalm 115:1) | D5 Sincerity | The Psalmist; Paul | ”I believed, and so I spoke” — grounds apostolic proclamation in prior, genuine faith, not performance. | Note LXX/MT Psalm-numbering difference; use standard Hindi भजन संहिता 116:10 numbering (MT-based), matching BSI convention, not LXX 115. |
| 3 | 2 Corinthians 6:2 | Isaiah 49:8 | D1 Reconciliation | The Servant of the LORD (typologically Christ) | “In a favorable time I listened to you, and in a day of salvation I have helped you” — quoted from the second Servant Song; Paul applies “now is the day of salvation” to the immediate gospel appeal following 5:20’s reconciliation call. | Isaiah 49 is messianic Servant material; the quotation should be flagged alongside the core passage’s atonement guardrails (see Part 2 below) since it reinforces the “acceptable time” as Christ’s accomplished, once-for-all reconciling work, not a repeatable ritual occasion. |
| 4 | 2 Corinthians 6:16-18 | Leviticus 26:11-12; Ezekiel 37:27; Isaiah 52:11; Ezekiel 20:34,41; 2 Samuel 7:14 (cf. 1 Chronicles 17:13); Isaiah 43:6 | D2, D5 | Israel (corporate); David; God as Father | Composite catena: God’s promise to “dwell among” his people, the call to “come out” and be separate, and the sonship/daughter promise — applied by Paul to the church as the living temple. | Segment each OT source separately in the translation cache even though it reads as one continuous quotation; render “I will be a father to you” consistent with baseline पिता (Father, Critical) and “sons and daughters” consistent with baseline दत्तक-पुत्रता (adoption, High) — see glossary term #30 for the accompanying मंदिर guardrail. |
| 5 | 2 Corinthians 8:15 | Exodus 16:18 | D6 Generosity | Israel in the wilderness (manna narrative) | “Whoever gathered much had nothing left over, and whoever gathered little had no lack” — applied directly to the logic of the Jerusalem collection’s equitable sharing. | Low collision risk; the manna-equality principle is a strong natural bridge for Hindi/Indian communal-sharing intuitions — but must not be moralized into merit-based giving (see उदारता caution, glossary #32). |
| 6 | 2 Corinthians 9:9 | Psalm 112:9 | D6 Generosity | The righteous man of the Psalm (paradigmatic, not a named figure) | “He has distributed freely, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever” — the generous giver’s righteousness (धार्मिकता) is display, not achievement, of grace already received. | Reuses baseline धार्मिकता (Critical); this occurrence is the “fruit” sense (practical righteous conduct), distinct from but consistent with the forensic sense at 2 Corinthians 5:21 — do not let the two senses cross-contaminate in translator notes. |
| 7 | 2 Corinthians 10:17 | Jeremiah 9:23-24 (Hebrew 9:22-23) | D5, D7, D8 | Jeremiah (prophet); Paul | ”Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord” — shorthand quotation redirecting all legitimate boasting to God alone, anchoring the extended irony of chapters 10–12. | Reuses baseline घमण्ड (boasting) family; this is the letter’s only direct OT quotation using this term (Romans/Galatians occurrences of the same Hindi word are not themselves quotations) — record this citation distinction in the segment cache so back-translation review does not conflate a Scripture quotation with Paul’s own composition elsewhere. |
| 8 | 2 Corinthians 13:1 | Deuteronomy 19:15 | D5, D8 | Moses (lawgiver) | “Every matter must be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses” — applied to Paul’s third visit functioning as a legal warning/confirmation. | Low doctrinal risk; straightforward legal-procedural citation; ensure व्यवस्था is not used loosely here for “witnesses law” in a way that would blur with the baseline’s Torah-specific reservation of व्यवस्था — a generic गवाही/साक्षी (witness) formulation is sufficient. |
Part 2 — Old Testament Allusions and Typological Backgrounds (chapter order)
| # | 2 Corinthians Passage | OT Background | Theme (Doctrine) | Related Character(s) | OT/NT Connection | Translation Sensitivity |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 2 Corinthians 1:3 | Exodus 34:6; Psalm 103:8,13 | D3 Suffering/Comfort | God (revealed to Moses) | “Father of mercies” echoes God’s self-revealed compassionate character. | Reuses baseline दया (mercy, Medium) and पिता (Father, Critical); low risk given established baseline handling. |
| 2 | 2 Corinthians 2:14-16 | Genesis 8:21; Leviticus 1:9,13,17 (soothing/pleasing aroma offerings) | D5, D8 | Noah; priests offering sacrifices | ”Fragrance/aroma of Christ” echoes the OT sacrificial “pleasing aroma” formula, but reverses its direction — the aroma moves from Christ through the apostles to the world, not from a worshipper to a deity. | High collision risk already flagged in 08_core_glossary.md #51: must not be assimilated to incense/pūjā-offering imagery; mandatory note on the reversed direction of the metaphor. |
| 3 | 2 Corinthians 3:3 | Exodus 31:18; 34:1 (tablets of stone); Jeremiah 31:33; Ezekiel 11:19; 36:26 (heart of flesh, law written on the heart) | D4 New Covenant | Moses; the prophets Jeremiah and Ezekiel | Composite allusion contrasting the Sinai stone tablets with the New Covenant’s Spirit-written law on human hearts — the letter’s central OT background for D4. | High risk; anchors पत्थर की पट्टियाँ / हृदय की पट्टियाँ (glossary #16); must be read as fulfillment of a specific prophetic promise (linear covenant history), not a general “inner vs. outer religion” platitude. |
| 4 | 2 Corinthians 3:6 | Jeremiah 31:31-34 | D4 New Covenant | Jeremiah; Moses (implicit contrast) | “The letter kills, the Spirit gives life” draws directly on Jeremiah’s New Covenant oracle. | Reuses अक्षर/आत्मा (glossary #18); flag for future cross-curriculum registration — see Part 4 below regarding Romans 2:29 and 7:6. |
| 5 | 2 Corinthians 3:7-11, 13, 16, 18 | Exodus 34:29-35 (Moses’ shining, fading, veiled face) | D4 New Covenant | Moses | Extended typological midrash: the old covenant’s real but fading glory, veiled from Israel, is surpassed by the New Covenant’s greater, unfading, unveiled glory in Christ. | High risk cluster; परदा (veil, glossary #20) must not be assimilated to māyā (Vedantic veil of cosmic illusion lifted through impersonal gnosis) — the veil here is removed only by a personal turning to the Lord (3:16), not by attained esoteric knowledge. |
| 6 | 2 Corinthians 3:14 | Isaiah 29:10; Deuteronomy 29:4 (cf. Romans 11:7-8, 25) | D4 New Covenant; cross-reference to Unity of Jews and Gentiles | Israel (corporate, unbelieving) | “Their minds were hardened” (ἐπωρώθη) uses the same root as Romans 11:7’s “hardened” (πωρωθῇ) and 11:25’s “partial hardening” (πώρωσις). | Major cross-curriculum parallel — see Part 4, Rule set. Must render consistently with baseline आंशिक कठोरता (partial_hardening, High) vocabulary family so a Hindi reader of both curricula recognizes the same doctrine of Israel’s temporary hardening, distinct from the separate “veil” (परदा) image occurring in the same verses — the two motifs must not collapse into one Hindi word. |
| 7 | 2 Corinthians 5:14-15, 21 | Genesis 2-3 (Adam); Isaiah 53:4-6, 9-12 (Suffering Servant, “bore our sins,” “numbered with transgressors,” “an offering for sin”) | D1 Reconciliation | Adam; the Servant of the LORD (typologically Christ) | Two typological streams converge: (a) Adam/Christ federal representation (“one died for all… all died,” paralleling Romans 5:12-21); (b) Isaiah’s Suffering Servant who bears others’ sin and is “made” a sin-offering — the OT typological background for “he made him to be sin” (5:21). | Critical; ties directly to the Galatians atonement_curse_bearing guardrail and to this curriculum’s own Critical-tier entry (glossary #7). Mandatory theologian review: the Isaiah 53 background must reinforce a judicial, substitutionary sin-bearing, guarding against any Hindu-background ritual sin-transfer (“sin-eater”) misreading, exactly as flagged in 07_semantic_analysis.md. |
| 8 | 2 Corinthians 5:17 | Isaiah 43:18-19; 65:17; 66:22 (new things, new heavens and new earth); Genesis 1 (creation) | D2 New Creation | — (cosmic/creational, no single human character) | Paul’s “new creation” language draws on Isaiah’s eschatological new-creation promises, applied already to individual believers “in Christ.” | High risk; reinforces glossary #3’s guardrail against a पुनर्जन्म-adjacent cyclical-rebirth reading — this is the prophetically promised, once-for-all inaugurated new creation, not a repeatable renewal cycle. |
| 9 | 2 Corinthians 6:7; 10:4 | Isaiah 59:17 (breastplate of righteousness; garments of vengeance) | D5, D8 | God (as divine warrior) | “Weapons of righteousness” and “divine weapons” for demolishing strongholds echo Isaiah’s divine-warrior imagery, later paralleled in Romans 13:12’s armor_of_light. | Medium risk; reuse हथियार root consistently with baseline ज्योति के हथियार (armor_of_light); must remain intellectual/spiritual argument-imagery, not literal or occult warfare (avoid जादू-टोना drift, per Galatians baseline sorcery caution). |
| 10 | 2 Corinthians 8:9 | Isaiah 53:4-5 (background); Philippians 2:6-8 (parallel NT text, not in this curriculum) | D6 Generosity | Christ | Christ’s voluntary self-impoverishment “though he was rich” echoes the Servant’s humiliation and functions as the theological ground of the collection appeal. | Medium-High risk (glossary #56); guard against prosperity-gospel “give to get rich” misapplication. |
| 11 | 2 Corinthians 9:10 | Isaiah 55:10; Hosea 10:12 | D6 Generosity | — | “He who supplies seed to the sower… will supply and multiply your seed” echoes Isaiah’s word-like-rain imagery and Hosea’s “sow righteousness” call. | Medium risk; reinforces the sowing_and_reaping pattern (see Part 4) — God, not an impersonal cosmic ledger, supplies the harvest. |
| 12 | 2 Corinthians 11:2-3 | Genesis 3:1-13 (the serpent’s deception of Eve); Hosea 2:19-20; Jeremiah 2:2; Ezekiel 16 (Israel as YHWH’s bride) | D8 Genuine vs False Apostleship | Eve; the serpent; Israel (as bride) | Paul fears the Corinthians’ “minds will be led astray” as Eve was deceived, and frames the church’s fidelity to Christ using OT bride-of-YHWH covenant imagery. | High risk (glossary #38); the exclusive-bridegroom image must not be assimilated to bhakti bridal-mysticism (gopī-devotion, goddess-consort traditions) that could recast exclusive devotion to Christ as one legitimate devotional path among several. |
| 13 | 2 Corinthians 11:14 | (Extra-biblical Second-Temple tradition regarding Satan’s deceptive transformations, echoed conceptually in Genesis 3’s serpent and 1 Kings 22:19-23-type deceiving-spirit narratives) | D8 | Satan | ”Even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.” | High risk; must avoid अवतार-adjacent “form-taking” vocabulary — this is deceptive impersonation, not a legitimate divine descent; directly relevant warning against deceptive godmen/spiritual guides in the Indian religious landscape. |
| 14 | 2 Corinthians 12:2-4 | Ezekiel 1; Daniel 7 (visionary ascent/throne-room genre); background also 1 Kings 22:19 | D7 Power in Weakness | Paul (unnamed “a man”) | Paul’s “third heaven”/“paradise” experience belongs to the biblical visionary-ascent genre distinct from ordinary revelation. | High risk (glossary #42); must not be conflated with yogic/tantric astral-projection or kundalini-ascent-through-lokas techniques; this was a sovereign, unrepeatable divine act, not a devotional technique. |
| 15 | 2 Corinthians 13:4 | Isaiah 53 (background); Psalm 22 (background, suffering-then-vindication pattern) | D7 Power in Weakness | Christ | ”Crucified in weakness… lives by the power of God” recapitulates the suffering-then-glory pattern rooted in the Psalms of lament and Isaiah’s Servant. | Medium-High risk; ties the letter’s climactic power-in-weakness statement to Christ’s own history, reinforcing that this pattern is Christological before it is apostolic or personal. |
Chapters 1, 2, 7, and 12 (beyond the entries above) were reviewed and contain no additional direct OT quotations; their governing allusions are listed above (1:3; 2:14-16; 12:2-4). Chapter 7 (godly/worldly grief) draws on wisdom-tradition grief/repentance themes (cf. Psalm 51) but contains no direct quotation and is therefore recorded here as reviewed with no additional table entry required.
Part 3 — Messianic References and Typological Summary
| Typological Pattern | 2 Corinthians Locus | OT Roots | Fulfillment/Application | Translation Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Moses/veiled glory → Christ/unveiled glory | 3:7-18 | Exodus 34:29-35 | Christ’s covenant surpasses Moses’ covenant in permanence and accessibility; believers “with unveiled face” behold and reflect the Lord’s glory. | Central D4 typology; परदा guardrail (see Part 2 #5) governs every occurrence. |
| Suffering Servant | 5:21; 6:2; 8:9; 13:4 | Isaiah 49:1-13; 52:13-53:12 | Christ as the sin-bearing, humiliated-then-exalted Servant; Paul applies Servant language both to Christ’s atoning work and to the “day of salvation” now proclaimed. | Critical for D1; reinforce judicial substitution, not ritual sin-transfer (see Part 2 #7). |
| Adam/Christ federal headship | 5:14-15 | Genesis 2-3; parallel Romans 5:12-21 | Christ as the second/last Adam whose representative death and life determine the status of “all” united to him. | Reuse baseline प्रतिनिधि प्रधानता (federal_headship) exactly; gloss on first use per baseline convention. |
| Israel as YHWH’s bride → Church as Christ’s betrothed bride | 11:2 | Hosea 2; Jeremiah 2; Ezekiel 16 | The church’s exclusive covenant fidelity to Christ recapitulates Israel’s covenant-bride relationship to YHWH. | High risk; guard against bridal-mysticism collision (Part 2 #12). |
| Tabernacle/Temple indwelling | 6:16-18 | Leviticus 26:11-12; Ezekiel 37:27 | God’s promised personal dwelling among his people is now fulfilled in the church as the living temple of the Spirit. | High risk; मंदिर used correctly here for ναός (distinct from baseline’s rejection of मंदिर for ἐκκλησία/church) — mandatory note distinguishing from an idol-housing Hindu मंदिर. |
| New creation | 5:17 | Genesis 1; Isaiah 65:17; 66:22 | Christ’s death/resurrection inaugurates the promised eschatological new creation, already present “in him.” | This curriculum’s primary anchor verse for D2, per 08_core_glossary.md. |
| Weakness-to-power reversal | 4:7; 12:9-10; 13:4 | Judges 7 (Gideon); 1 Samuel 17 (David); Exodus 4:10 (Moses); Deuteronomy 7:7 (Israel, smallest of nations) | God’s characteristic OT pattern of working through the weak/unlikely culminates in the cross and continues in apostolic ministry. | Central to D7; निर्बलता/सामर्थ्य guardrails apply throughout. |
Part 4 — Parallels to Romans and Galatians (Cross-Curriculum Consistency)
| # | 2 Corinthians Locus | Shared Theme | Romans/Galatians Anchor | Hindi Term(s) Requiring Identical Reuse | Consistency Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 3:14 | Hardening of Israel’s mind | Romans 11:7, 25 (partial_hardening) | आंशिक कठोरता | Same Greek root (πωρωθῇ/πώρωσις); must not be merged with the separate “veil” (परदा) image occurring in the same verses — keep the two motifs lexically distinct so both curricula’s readers recognize the same underlying doctrine of Israel’s temporary, partial hardening. |
| 2 | 5:14-15 | Adam/Christ representative headship | Romans 5:12-21 (federal_headship) | प्रतिनिधि प्रधानता | Identical technical term; gloss on first use in each document per baseline convention. |
| 3 | 5:17 | New creation | Galatians 6:15 (new_creation) | नई सृष्टि | Identical rendering; 2 Corinthians 5:17 functions as this curriculum’s primary anchor verse for the doctrine, per 08_core_glossary.md, without displacing Galatians 6:15’s standing occurrence. |
| 4 | 5:19 | Non-imputation of sin (negative mirror of imputed righteousness) | Romans 4:3-8 (imputed_righteousness) | आरोपित धार्मिकता (positive) / उनके अपराधों को उनके विरुद्ध न गिनना (negative) | The forensic-accounting logic must run symmetrically in both directions across curricula: righteousness credited in Romans 4, sin not credited in 2 Corinthians 5:19 — both are gifts of a sovereign God’s ledger, never human achievement. |
| 5 | 9:6 | Sowing and reaping | Galatians 6:7-9 (sowing_and_reaping) | मनुष्य जो कुछ बोता है, वही काटेगा | Identical proverb-form reused, but a mandatory translator note must distinguish the giving-application here (2 Corinthians 9:6, generosity yields a generous harvest, D6) from the flesh/Spirit-eschatology application in Galatians 6:7-8, so catechesis does not flatten both into one generic “moral law of sowing” indistinguishable from जैसा कर्म वैसा फल. |
| 6 | 10:17 | Boasting redirected to the Lord | Romans 3:27; Galatians 6:14 (boasting family) | घमण्ड | Same Hindi root throughout; note that 2 Corinthians 10:17 is a direct OT quotation (Jeremiah 9:23-24) while the Romans/Galatians occurrences are not quotations — record this citation-type distinction in the segment cache. |
| 7 | 13:5 | Christ’s personal indwelling presence, believer remains a real “I/you” | Galatians 2:20 (christ_lives_in_me) | मसीह तुम में है / मसीह मुझ में जीवित है | Identical Critical-tier guardrail applies without modification: Christ must remain a distinct, named, personal indwelling presence, never dissolved into an impersonal universal Self; mandatory theologian review and translator note on every occurrence in both curricula. |
| 8 | 13:14 | Trinitarian benediction | Baseline त्रिएकता (trinity) entry | अनुग्रह / प्रेम / पवित्र आत्मा की संगति | Three Persons named distinctly; never collapsed toward त्रिमूर्ति; apply identical rigor as the baseline trinity entry. |
| 9 | 1:20 | Promises of God fulfilled in Christ (“Yes”) | Galatians 3:14-29; Romans 4:13-21 (promise) | प्रतिज्ञा | Use प्रतिज्ञा for “the promises of God,” never वरदान (which would make fulfillment merit-conditioned) — extends the Galatians promise guardrail into 2 Corinthians. |
| 10 | 3:6 | Letter versus Spirit | Romans 2:29; 7:6 (same γράμμα/πνεῦμα contrast; no prior baseline TM entry) | अक्षर / आत्मा | New term for this curriculum (glossary #18); recommend registering अक्षर/आत्मा in the shared translation memory so any future treatment of Romans 2:29 or 7:6 in this Language Package reuses the identical rendering rather than independently re-deriving it. |
| 11 | 6:14 | Yoke metaphor | Galatians 5:1 (yoke_of_slavery, दासत्व का जूआ) | अविश्वासियों के साथ एक ही जूए में न बंधो | Distinct application (joint-yoking WITH unbelievers vs. bondage-yoke OF slavery); keep जूआ as the shared root but avoid rendering 6:14 in a way that imports slavery vocabulary — flag for native speaker review to preserve the distinction between the two yoke-images. |
| 12 | 6:7; 10:4 | Weapons/armor imagery | Romans 13:12 (armor_of_light, ज्योति के हथियार) | हथियार (shared root) | Consistent military-metaphor vocabulary across both curricula; keep light/darkness pairings distinct from this weapons-imagery pairing. |
| 13 | 11:14 | Light/darkness, deception imagery | Romans 13:12 (armor_of_light); baseline glory (महिमा) light-metaphor caution | ज्योति | Consistent light-vocabulary; avoid conflating Satan’s counterfeit “light” with the baseline’s caution against divine-radiance-adjacent light metaphors for glory — the two must remain distinguishable in context. |
| 14 | 12:9-10; 13:4,9 | Power and weakness | Romans 1:16 (power_of_god, सामर्थ्य); Romans 8:26 (Spirit helps in our weakness, ἀσθένεια — no prior baseline TM entry) | सामर्थ्य (reused) / निर्बलता (new) | निर्बलता is established here as this curriculum’s dedicated weakness-term; recommend registering it in the shared translation memory for consistency should Romans 8:26 be revisited in this Language Package. |
| 15 | 5:21 | Substitutionary sin-bearing | Galatians 3:13 (atonement_curse_bearing) | जिसने पाप को नहीं जाना, परमेश्वर ने हमारे लिये उसे पाप बना दिया | Parallel Critical-tier guardrail structure: both terms guard against a ritual, magically-transferable reading (curse-lifting / sin-eating) of what is in fact a once-for-all judicial substitution accomplished by a sovereign, personal God. Apply identical theologian-review and translator-note requirements. |
Part 5 — Rendering-Consistency Rules for Shared Quotations
-
No direct verse-level overlap currently exists. None of 2 Corinthians’ direct OT quotations (Genesis 1:3; Psalm 116:10; Isaiah 49:8; the Leviticus 26/Ezekiel 37/Isaiah 52/2 Samuel 7/Isaiah 43 catena; Exodus 16:18; Psalm 112:9; Jeremiah 9:23-24; Deuteronomy 19:15) duplicate a verse already quoted in the Romans or Galatians baseline (Genesis 15:6; Habakkuk 2:4; Leviticus 19:18; Deuteronomy 21:23; Isaiah 8:14/28:16; Genesis 12:7/13:15/17:7-8/24:7). This rule is recorded now so that if a future curriculum in this Language Package (e.g., 1 Corinthians, Hebrews) quotes any of these same OT texts, the verbatim-match rule below applies retroactively to 2 Corinthians’ renderings.
-
Verbatim-match rule (extends the baseline’s Galatians/Romans shared-citation rule). Where the same OT verse is quoted in two or more curricula within this Language Package, the Hindi rendering of that verse’s quoted text must be identical, word-for-word, across all curricula. This rule is pre-registered for 2 Corinthians’ quotations listed in Part 1 above.
-
Shared-term, distinct-context rule. Where a shared theological term or formula (not a shared verse) recurs — sowing/reaping, boasting-in-the-Lord, hardening, yoke, weapons, promise, new creation, “Christ lives/is in me/you” — always reuse the baseline’s identical Hindi rendering exactly. Distinguish differing contexts through translator notes appended to the segment cache, never through vocabulary substitution, which would break cross-curriculum learner recognition.
-
Catena segmentation rule. Composite OT quotations spliced together by Paul (2 Corinthians 6:16-18) must be segmented in the translation cache so that each individual OT source text (Leviticus 26:11-12; Ezekiel 37:27; Isaiah 52:11; Ezekiel 20:34,41; 2 Samuel 7:14; Isaiah 43:6) is tagged and reviewable separately, even though the Hindi output presents them as one continuous quotation matching Paul’s own compositional choice.
-
Citation-formula rule. All instances of γέγραπται (“it is written”) introducing a quotation must be rendered with the established BSI formula “जैसा लिखा है,” consistently across 2 Corinthians and the baseline curricula.
-
Psalm/LXX numbering rule. Where Psalm citations follow LXX numbering internally in the Greek text (e.g., Psalm 116:10 MT = Psalm 115:1 LXX), the Hindi citation apparatus must use standard MT-based numbering (भजन संहिता 116:10), consistent with BSI convention and with the baseline’s Cross-Reference Preservation Rules — never LXX numbering.
-
Typology-vs-quotation distinction rule. Passages that are typological allusions rather than direct quotations (e.g., the Moses/veil narrative of Exodus 34 underlying 2 Corinthians 3:7-18; the Suffering Servant background of 2 Corinthians 5:21) must be tagged in the segment cache as “allusion/typology,” not “quotation,” so review routing and footnote requirements are applied correctly per
12_ai_translation_requirements.md’s footnote rules.
Coverage Confirmation
All thirteen chapters of 2 Corinthians have been reviewed for OT quotations, allusions, messianic/typological content, and cross-curriculum parallels. Chapters 1, 2, 7, and 12 contain no direct OT quotations beyond the allusions recorded in Part 2 and are explicitly noted as reviewed rather than omitted. Every doctrine (D1–D8) has at least one governing OT/typological anchor recorded above.
