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.
The tightest single-verse contact in the whole Micah surface: four consecutive clauses running near word for word. COUNTS (rule: distinct frozen verses in the corpus per R2-Q36; comma-tolerant per R2-Q32): 'horn iron', 'hoofs brass' and 'beat in pieces' each stand at exactly two corpus verses -- 3 Nephi 20:19 and Micah 4:13 in every case; 'the Lord of the whole earth' at five (recounted 2026-08-10 at the D&C freeze), those two plus Psalms 97:5, Zechariah 4:14 -- which prints the divine name 'LORD' -- and D&C 55:1, under the same counting rule, case-tolerant. The other three phrases and 'sheaves into the floor' are unmoved by the freeze, with zero D&C carriers each. Nothing in this run is common diction. DIVERGENCES, as textual facts: Micah reads 'thine horn', 3 Nephi 'thy horn'; Micah's clause-joining colons are a period and semicolons in 3 Nephi; the divine name printed 'LORD' in Micah's first consecrate-clause reads 'Lord' in 3 Nephi. 3 Nephi 20:19 also carries words with no counterpart in Micah 4:13 at either end -- it opens 'For I will make my people with whom the Father hath covenanted, yea,' and closes 'And behold, I am he who doeth it.' -- while Micah 4:13 opens with an imperative the discourse does not reproduce, 'Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion'. ADJACENT PAIR, reported here rather than separately registered: the preceding verse tracks the preceding Micah verse -- 'I will gather my people together as a man gathereth his sheaves into the floor' (3 Nephi 20:18) against 'he shall gather them as the sheaves into the floor' (Micah 4:12); 'sheaves into the floor' stands at exactly those two corpus verses on the same counting rule. ORDER, as a textual fact: the discourse runs Micah's chapter-5 material (the lion of 5:8 and the lifted hand of 5:9, at 3 Nephi 20:16-17) BEFORE Micah's chapter-4 material (the threshing-floor of 4:12-13, at 3 Nephi 20:18-19). ATTRIBUTION -- UNATTRIBUTED: the record never names Micah, and the discourse gives these words to the Father, so this record asserts the verbal correspondence only; whether it is a quotation is weighed in the page's interpretive callout, not settled. asserted_by is absent (= wiki).
