Alma 42:31 · 2 Nephi 9:25
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 claim-idiom's fullest statement, carried by the exact string 'have claim upon them'. Alma 42 works the idiom through its full case-logic: 'which repentance, mercy claimeth; otherwise, justice claimeth the creature' (42:22), 'mercy claimeth all which is her own' (42:24). Extends the registered claim-ledger (mos-atone-mercy-claim: Mosiah 2:39 / 2 Nephi 9:25; Abinadi's inversion Mosiah 15:27). NEW verse-pair.
