Moses 4:31 · Genesis 3:24
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 cherubim and flaming sword, in matching terms recast to first person. Divergences: Moses 'So I drove out … I placed' vs Genesis 'So he drove out … he placed'; Moses 'at the east of the Garden of Eden, cherubim and a flaming sword' vs Genesis 'at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword' (word order and capitalization). The Book of Mormon carries the same scene (Moses 4:31 <-> Alma 42:2 at pogp-mos-01; Alma 12:21 <-> Genesis 3:24 at alma-cherubim-flaming-sword); this record is the Moses <-> Genesis leg. No existing register record pairs Moses with Genesis -- checked connections.json, both orderings. Spelling divergence, reported not scored: Moses 4:31 reads 'cherubim,' Genesis 3:24 'Cherubims' (the corpus KJV's spelling at its 64 other occurrences; the verse's served 'Cherubim' was a source artifact corrected under the 2026-07-10 raw-represents-the-KJV ruling, provenance in verification-log.md).
