Book of Mormon 3 Nephi 12:18
"one jot nor one tittle hath not passed away from the law, but in me it hath all been fulfilled"
New Testament Matthew 5:18
"Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled"

Shared words: from the law

The jot-and-tittle saying. 3 Nephi 12:18 states the fulfilment as accomplished ('in me it hath all been fulfilled'); Matthew 5:18 states it as future ('till all be fulfilled') and carries the clause 'Till heaven and earth pass', which has no counterpart in 3 Nephi. The distinctive doublet 'jot and tittle' is shared. Distinct from the in-corpus record 3ne-amulek-jot-tittle (3 Nephi 12:18 to Alma 34:13, hosted on amulek.md), which keys a different clause of 12:18.
