New Testament Matthew 5:24
"first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift"

Shared words: first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come

The reconciliation antithesis. The shared clause is 'first be reconciled to thy brother, and then'; 3 Nephi 12:24 continues 'come unto me with full purpose of heart, and I will receive you' where Matthew 5:24 reads 'come and offer thy gift'. The temple-sacrifice setting of Matthew 5:23 ('bring thy gift to the altar') stands in 3 Nephi 12:23 as 'come unto me, or shall desire to come unto me'.
