This is not a philosophical answer so I hope you can still stand it, but. The reason those passages are important within Judeo-Christianity are because they differentiated the modern cultures that people were practicing from a new monotheistic-way. That is the point of those passages.
I do not believe the point of them is to suggest that there is one mind, that is just a fantasy of people with a lot of time on their hands, isn't it? Universal consciousness?
The point of those passages was to say "We are different because we believe in ONE and they don't" Hence, all the rules, to DIFFERENTIATE.
Your question is a good question but may be better if it's not distracted by biblical passages.
