Alma 45:24 · Helaman 3:36
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 causal formula 'because of their exceedingly great riches' stands at exactly three corpus verses — Alma 45:24 (its first occurrence, the narrator's report of the apostasy immediately after Alma's departure), Helaman 3:36 (the year-ledger form: a year of peace 'save it were' the pride, with this stated cause), and 3 Nephi 6:10 — with the second-person variant 'because of your exceedingly great riches' at Helaman 7:26 (verified by a search of the corpus). This record formalizes the first-occurrence-to-ledger leg of the triangle whose 3 Nephi 6:10 <-> Helaman 3:36 leg is registered as 3ne-riches-cycle-fastest (riches-and-pride.md); the third pairing (Alma 45:24 <-> 3 Nephi 6:10) remains unregistered. Divergence reported, not scored: Alma 45:24 states the pride-from-riches as the narrator's causal verdict on one apostasy; Helaman 3:36 sets the identical formula inside a dated ledger entry and adds the day-to-day growth clause. Registered at the 2026-07-10 editorial review (provenance in verification-log.md).
