D&C 39:3 · John 1:11
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 divergence is grammatical person — the revelation speaks in the first person of itself, the gospel in the third — plus one addition: 'in the meridian of time' has no counterpart in the gospel verse. That phrase stands at six frozen verses, four of them in Moses. The first-person form of the clause also stands at D&C 6:21 (registered on oliver-cowdery.md as w1-dc6-own-received-john), 10:57, 11:29, 45:8, and 3 Nephi 9:16.
