Doctrine and Covenants D&C 88:119
"Organize yourselves; prepare every needful thing; and establish a house, even a house of prayer, a house of fasting, a house of faith, a house of learning, a house of glory, a house of order, a house of God;"
Old Testament Isaiah 56:7
"for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people."

Shared words: house of prayer

'a house of prayer' stands at exactly three distinct frozen verses in the corpus: D&C 88:119, D&C 109:8, and D&C 109:16. The prophecy's own form 'an house of prayer' stands at exactly one, Isaiah 56:7, with a gospel carrying it as 'the house of prayer' at Matthew 21:13. What this verse does that no other carrier does is make the term one of seven parallel appositives; the six that accompany it are not in the prophecy. Divergences: the prophecy's house is an existing sanctuary whose worship is being widened to 'all people', and this verse's is a house not yet established, named by its uses in advance. LEAD-DISCRETION FLAG: the shared run is three words of a common phrase, which is the weakest of this batch; the note gives the full distribution so the pairing can be cut without loss of information from the page.
