"often found Him alone on the mountainside or among the trees of the forest, spending a quiet hour in prayer and the study of God's word. During His ministry His intimate acquaintance with the Scriptures testifies to His diligence in their study. And since He gained knowledge as we may gain it, His wonderful power, both mental and spiritual, is a testimony to the value of the Bible as a means of education. Ed 185.1"
"And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God."
EGW explicitly refers to Jesus' practice of going to the mountains to pray, which is directly described in Luke 6:12. She then connects this practice to His study of the Scriptures and the resulting power He possessed, making it more than just a thematic parallel.
"Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me."
Both passages emphasize the importance of studying scripture. EGW highlights Jesus's example, while John 5:39 is a direct command to search the scriptures.
"Our heavenly Father, in giving His word, did not overlook the children. In all that men have written, where can be found anything that has such a hold upon the heart, anything so well adapted to awaken the interest of the little ones, as the stories of the Bible? Ed 185.2"
"But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven."
Both passages relate to children and their relationship to spiritual matters. EGW emphasizes the suitability of Bible stories for children, while Matthew 19:14 shows Jesus welcoming children.
"In these simple stories may be made plain the great principles of the law of God. Thus by illustrations best suited to the child's comprehension, parents and teachers may begin very early to fulfill the Lord's injunction concerning His precepts: “Thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.” Deuteronomy 6:7 . Ed 185.3"
"And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up."
EGW directly quotes Deuteronomy 6:7, making this an explicit allusion.
