BUG: Consistent mis-tagging of Ps.-Mk

I believe Ps.-Mk refers to the book Pseudo-Mark aka Acts of Barnabas but is tagged as if it were the Gospel of Mark consistently in Allison, Dale C., Jr. A Critical and Exegetical Commentary on The Epistle of James. Edited by G. I. Davies and C. M. Tuckett. International Critical Commentary. New York; London; New Delhi; Sydney: Bloomsbury, 2013 and perhaps other works.

Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    Hi MJ, 

    Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We're looking into it and we'll work on a fix.

    Have a nice day!

    MJ: Please correct me if I'm mistaken but I believe in these contexts "Ps.-Mk" refers to the alternate ending of Mark (Mark 16:9-20). At least in the James volume you referenced, the Ps.-Mk. references seem to match the Gospel according to Mark.

    Trying to find the reference in a footnote to triple check was a sufficient pain as to put me in an annoyed mood. But the front matter says that the abbreviations are those of the SBL handbook in which ps. is used to denote ""pseudo". I don't appear to have a copy of the Acts of Barnabas in Greek to check if the appropriate pair of words appears there nor do I find SBL standards to indicate the alternative ending of Mark is coded Ps.-Mk

    Hi MJ,

    This has been reviewed by our team and, as Kyle mentioned, in these contexts "Ps.-Mk" is referring to the alternate ending of Mark (Mark 16:9-20) and the references match the Gospel according to Mark.

    Thank you for your post and have a great day!

    I think PS.-MK refers to Mortal Kombat in Playstation.  As far as is known it's not pseudo-epi-video'd.

     I guess it's a Logos-specific abbreviation?  I would not have made the canonical Mark-ending association (nor to the adulterous woman / John, as Ps.-Jn).
