Textual Paraphrase

This connection's citations are checked against the source text.

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.

Book of Mormon Jarom 1:11
"teaching the law of Moses, and the intent for which it was given"
Book of Mormon 2 Nephi 25:27
"may look forward unto that life which is in Christ, and know for what end the law was given"

The phrase 'intent for which it was given' (Jarom) ≈ 'for what end the law was given' (Nephi) — same teaching point in different words, neither quoting the other; in both verses it stands beside the look-forward clause. Tiered paraphrase since the wordings differ.
