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.
Shared figure: arm(s) of mercy + extended towards. Divergences: plural 'arms' (Mosiah) vs singular 'arm' (Jacob); Jacob's present-tense plea ('harden not your hearts') vs Abinadi's past-tense verdict ('they would not'). The figure recurs at Mosiah 29:20 ('extending the arm of mercy towards them that put their trust in him'). Jacob 6:5 quote begins mid-verse after a period, hence capital 'And'. The figure also stands at Alma 5:33 ('the arms of mercy are extended towards them… Repent, and I will receive you') and reaches its first-person form at 3 Nephi 9:14 (3ne-arm-mercy-advent). Five-verse distribution.
