3 Nephi 12:20 · Matthew 5:20
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 enter-the-kingdom saying. 3 Nephi 12:20 reads 'come unto me and be ye saved … except ye shall keep my commandments' where Matthew 5:20 reads 'except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees'; the shared tail is 'ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven'.
