This connection's citations are checked against the source text.
The mark sits beside every quote a connection carries. It reports one thing: those words were found in the frozen source text at the reference this page cites, allowing only typographic differences such as curly quotes, dash forms and spacing.
It is not a tier signal, and it is not a judgment about the connection. Where a card carries the Interpretive badge, the reading is still offered with its evidence for you to weigh — the mark speaks only to the citations.
The badges and the mark are separate signals: Textual and Interpretive name the kind of claim a connection makes, while the mark reports that the connection's citations were checked.
Nephi re-quotes his own Isaiah 11 transcription; 30:9 makes the subject explicit ('the Lord God') where 21:4/Isaiah 11:4 read 'he'. Both verses continue 'smite the earth with the rod of his mouth' and 'with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.'
