Mosiah 3:20 · Revelation 14:6
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.
Offered to weigh. Both verses attach the identical four-term sequence — nation, kindred, tongue, people, in that order — to the universal spread of the gospel. What is textual: the sequence and the order. What keeps this interpretive rather than shared phrasing: the formula is stock in both texts rather than a distinctive one-to-one pairing. 'kindred, tongue, and people' stands at six Book of Mormon verses (Mosiah 3:20, 15:28, 16:1; 2 Nephi 26:13; Alma 37:4, 45:16); 'kindred, and tongue, and people' at Revelation 5:9, 14:6 and D&C 133:37 (recounted 2026-08-10 at the D&C freeze); and the plural 'kindreds, tongues, and people' at a further six Book of Mormon verses (1 Nephi 5:18, 11:36, 13:40, 14:11, 22:28; 2 Nephi 30:8). Revelation varies its own order (5:9 ends with 'nation'; 7:9 reads 'nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues'). Reported without scoring: 'everlasting gospel' stands at twenty-four verses in the corpus (recounted 2026-08-10 at the D&C freeze) — Revelation 14:6, Joseph Smith—History 1:34, and twenty-two in the Doctrine and Covenants — and has no Book of Mormon occurrence. The corpus gives no account of the parallel; origin outside this wiki's scope. Class (c). asserted_by wiki.
