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.
Extends hel-samuel-sword-of-justice (Helaman 13:5 <-> Alma 60:29). The full hang-over-then-fall-upon image, conditioned on repentance, occurs at three loci -- Alma 60:29 (Captain Moroni's war-epistle threat to the government), Helaman 13:5 (Samuel's sentence on the Nephites, with the fixed four-hundred-years span), and here 3 Nephi 20:20 (the Father's latter-day warning to the Gentiles: 'the sword of my justice' — first-person possessive). Mormon re-voices it to latter-day readers at 3 Nephi 29:4 ('the sword of his justice is in his right hand') -- a related fourth leg without the hang/fall verbs. 20:20 re-uses the image against a different people 'at that day'; it is not the payment of Samuel's four-hundred-years sentence on the Nephites (Helaman 13:5, 13:9), which matches Alma 45:10 as an independent utterance; its fulfillment is registered as morm-samuel-named-fulfillment (Mormon 1:19) and morm-samuel-four-hundred-years (Mormon 8:6 <-> Helaman 13:5). Distribution note: the broader phrase 'sword of his justice' also appears at Alma 26:19 ('why did he not let the sword of his justice fall upon us,' Ammon's thanksgiving) -- a related motif, not part of the hang-then-fall sentence.
