You should check out a book called Traditions About the Early Life of Abraham, which is a bunch of extrabiblical stories about Abraham passed down through the generations. It's broken down into Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Apocryphal, and other legends, so some of them overlap, but it's fascinating to see how many of them align with the Book of Abraham. So many of those old apocryphal stories match up to parts of our own scripture, it's really interesting.

There are dozens and dozens of apocryphal Abraham stories involving almost every aspect we currently have in our current Book of Abraham. This book, Traditions about the Early Life of Abraham by Tvedtnes, Hauglid, and Gee is fantastic.

It's essentially the worldwide standard for the best compilation of these stories. (Unfortunately, they accidentally skipped one of the best stories, but it can be found online).

I own a copy of the book, and when you read through story after story, you find that what you quoted above is repeatedly seen. The book also contains dates to help aid in the process of when they were translated into English for the first time.
