Ether 8:20 · Alma 37:27
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 withheld-oaths embargo, honored a third time and by a third hand. Alma commanded Helaman to withhold the manner of the Jaredite oaths (Alma 37:27, span 37:27-32); Mormon then certified that the embargo held (hel-sc-alma-embargo-certified, Helaman 6:25 <-> Alma 37:27); and here Moroni, abridging the very Jaredite record whose oaths Alma had sealed, deliberately declines to write 'the manner of their oaths and combinations' (Ether 8:20). The shared elements are the 'oaths' language and the specific editorial act it governs -- withholding the MANNER of the oaths from the reader -- a continuity of the embargo across three keepers. Typed paraphrase: the binding element is the editorial practice plus the common 'oaths' lexeme rather than a distinctive multi-word phrase; the sibling record for the same Alma 37:27 relationship (hel-sc-alma-embargo-certified) is likewise paraphrase. Cross-link hel-sc-alma-embargo-certified.
